Abstract

Agriculture in Poland plays an important social and environmental role. Accession to the EU resulted in structural and modernization changes, following adjustments to CAP obligations. In 2019, the European Green Deal and “From Farm to Fork” strategies called for circularity, zero emissions, and food and energy security. The purpose of this study was to assess the consumption and energy efficiency of Polish farms, identify challenges in energy management, and formulate recommendations. This study used data from Polish Statistics, FADN, and other public bodies collecting relevant data. The assessment of energy intensity was carried out based on the concept of technical efficiency by Farell and Debreu, defined as the ratio of effects to inputs. In addition, methods of comparative and descriptive statistics were used. The average annual dynamics of energy consumption and CO2 emissions were determined using the compound percentage formula. The results of this research indicate positive changes in the energy management in Polish agriculture, including a decrease in production energy intensity, CO2 emissions, and the amount of waste generated by the investments made. It is necessary to improve farm energy efficiency further and to increase the use of renewable energy to maintain cost competitiveness and meet environmental requirements.

波兰农场的能源效率

波兰的农业在社会和环境方面发挥着重要作用。加入欧盟后，在对 CAP 义务进行调整后，波兰的农业发生了结构性和现代化的变化。2019 年，欧洲绿色交易和 "从农场到餐桌 "战略要求实现循环、零排放以及粮食和能源安全。本研究旨在评估波兰农场的能耗和能效，确定能源管理方面的挑战，并提出建议。这项研究使用了波兰统计局、FADN 和其他收集相关数据的公共机构提供的数据。能源强度的评估基于法雷尔（Farell）和德布鲁（Debreu）的技术效率概念，即效果与投入的比率。此外，还采用了比较和描述性统计方法。使用复合百分比公式确定了能源消耗和二氧化碳排放量的年均动态。研究结果表明，波兰农业的能源管理发生了积极变化，包括生产能源强度、二氧化碳排放量和投资产生的废物量都有所下降。有必要进一步提高农场能源效率，增加可再生能源的使用，以保持成本竞争力并满足环保要求。
