TY - GEN N2 - The aim of this paper is to compare policies and effects of financing the activities of producer groups by the EU funds in the financing periods: 2004–2006, 2007–2013 and 2014–2020. The use of funds from the action ʺagricultural producer groupsʺ hitherto for the period 2004–2014 was examined by region. In the analysed period the EU funds distributed under the Common Agricultural Policy were the basic instrument influencing the development of producer groups in Poland, and consequently at the end of 2014 there functioned 1351 groups. The rules for granting financial support to groups across budget periods were similar and evolved towards more efficient use of support from the point of view of individual groups, as well as the competitiveness of the entire agricultural sector. The projected increase in the amount of support and good practices of the operating groups are likely to affect further development of producer groups.
