Abstract

The main objectives of the paper are: 1) to present information on the number and structure of applications for subsidies for dairy cows and other cattle in 2015 in Poland; 2) economic evaluation of the system of subsidies for cows and other cattle in Poland; 3) to propose changes in the implemented system of subsidies to cattle. There were 27 461 farms, which only had 3 cows and applied for payments to these animals. This was up 16.9% of all farms applying for payments to cows. The proposed limits of the size of herds deducted subsidies are unclear (they are not supported by any economic arguments) and do not stimulate the growth of milk production in Poland.
