The main purpose of this paper is to analyze the latest legal changes to the farmers’ social security scheme in Poland. The research was based on both national legal acts and draft laws that constitute an explicit base for the current and recent changes to the farmers’ social security scheme. The author intends to identify fundamental legal amendments, indicate the direction followed by the domestic farmers’ social security scheme, and evaluate the importance and consequences of recent legal developments. The research was based on the Act on the farmers’ social security scheme of December 20, 1990, which also constitutes an explicit legal base for the national farmers’ social security scheme, and on other legal acts and draft laws related to the issue discussed in this paper.
