The resources, output and economical situation of farms in Pomorze and Kujawy province were presented to show the chances and threats for agriculture there. Simultaneously, demographic and social situation of rural population in the province was highlighted. The findings show that high potential of farming, developed f ood processing industry and good agricultural traditions create the chances for market oriented farms tobe competitive on domestic and foreign markets. For smaller farms it is necessary to begin the common activity, e.g. organizing the groups of producers or common machinery use. Additional non-agricultural work places have tobe created both in service sector and in agritourism using reach natural resourses. The threat for the province would be low education level (this concems especially the unemployed), high unemployment, and low spirit of enterprise, initiative and activity, as well a poor economical situation of agriculture as a whole in Poland.
