Abstract
Supply chain restructuring and its impact
on farmers’ situation have become the subject of vast
interest among agricultural economists. However, there
have been relatively few studies trying to quantitatively
asses this issue. This paper analyses the impact of supply
chain modernisation on dairy farmers in Poland. It is
shown that joining the modern marketing channel
positively affects farmers’ revenues. The decision to
enter the modern channel is crucially dependent on
access to funds and facilitated by having larger cow
herds.
