Abstract
Purpose – The aim of the study is to assess the stability of agricultural household income in Poland in 1995–2021 and to identify the determinants of the volatility of this income. Research method – The stability of farmer’s household income was compared with the income volatility of other socio-economic groups. Regression analysis was used to reveal the determinants of income volatility. Results – The income of farm households shows much greater year-on-year volatility than the income of households of employees and self-employed outside agriculture. Originality / value / implications / recommendations – The volatility of farm income is mainly influenced by the factors that determine the value of agricultural production and the costs of this production. Subsidies directed to farmers only mitigate the volatility of farm income.
