The aim of the conducted study was to characterize the attitudes and practices of Polish farmers in the area of performing chemical plant protection treatments. A particular attention was paid to identifying the relationship between the direction of changes in the volume of chemical plant protection product consumption and selected attributes of farms. The main time range of the analyses covered the period of 2013-2017. Statistical data and results of representative surveys carried out on a sample of 1101 farms in Poland were used in the research process. Due to the large number of variants of the analysed variables, a multiple correspondence analysis was used, which made it possible to determine the correlation between the examined features (direction of changes in pesticide use relative to the farm area, economic size of the farm and location of the farm). Statistical analysis showed the existence of strong relationships between the physical (1) and economic (2) size of farms and the direction of changes in pesticide consumption ((1) φ = 0.0907; (2) φ = 0.1141)). According to empirical studies, the reduction of pesticide consumption took place mainly on the smallest farms. The implementation of the integrated plant protection directive has not resulted in significant changes in the form of reduced pesticide use in large-scale field crops. This raises the need to modify the strategy and model of crop protection in large-scale field crops in Poland.
本研究旨在描述波兰农民在实施化学植保处理方面的态度和实践。特别关注确定化学植保产品消费总量变化的方向与农场的某些属性之间的关系。分析的主要时间范围涵盖了 2013 年至 2017 年期间。研究过程中使用了统计数据和对波兰 1101 个农场的代表性调查结果。由于分析变量的变体数量众多，因此使用了多元对应分析，这使得确定被检查特征（相对于农场面积的农药使用变化方向、农场的经济规模和位置）之间的相关性成为可能。统计分析表明，农场的物理（1）和经济（2）规模与农药消费变化方向之间存在很强的关系（（1）φ=0.0907；（2）φ=0.1141））。根据实证研究，农药消费的减少主要发生在最小的农场。综合植保指令的实施并没有导致大规模大田作物中农药使用形式的显著减少。这就需要修改波兰大规模大田作物的植保策略和模式。
