A multi-functional development of rural areas and implementation of knowledge-based economy contribute to the increase of education level among rural inhabitants. This paper is an attempt of a quantitative presentation of agriculture-related education among farm managers in Poland and identification of trends observed in this matter between 2002 and 2010, with a particular emphasis on the Kujawsko-pomorskie Voivodship. The analysis accounts for the number of farmers in five categories of education level, i.e.: (1) no agriculture-related education; (2) agriculture-related training course; (3) vocational education in agriculture; (4) vocational education in agriculture and post-agricultural education; (5) higher education in agriculture (university/technical university, etc.). With reference to the duration of agriculture-related education, conversion rates were used for the purposes of the analysis, which enabled construction of bonitation index concerning farm managers. The study of spatial differentiation of the observed patterns involved natural, urban and historical determinants.}, type={Text}, title={Stan i zmiany wykształcenia rolniczego kierowników gospodarstw rolnych w latach 2002–2010 w województwie kujawsko-pomorskim = Status and changes in agricultural education of farm managers in year 2002-2010 in the Kujawso-pomorskie Voivodship}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/igipz/Content/58066/PDF/WA51_78052_r2015-t40_SOW-Gwiazdzinska.pdf}, keywords={agricultural education, Kujawsko-Pomorskie voivodship}, }
