Abstract

The aim of this paper was to describe the state (as of 2010), structure by type (natural and mineral fertilisation, taking into account doses of nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus) and spatial diversification of fertilisation in the Polish agriculture (16 voivodships and 314 poviats). The studies of these issues concentrated on examining the impact of the external features of agriculture – natural and man-made ones. What has been demonstrated is the presence of a strong spatial diversification of fertilising procedures, mostly due to the impact of man-made conditions: historical and urban. It has transpired that the territorial patterns of fertilisation are bi-polar in nature: on the one hand, there are areas dominated by natural fertilisation (mostly north-eastern Poland); on the other hand, there are places where mineral fertilisation is prevalent (mostly northern and western Poland). Taking into consideration the planned Agricultural Census (2020) as well as the importance of pro-enviormental actions within The Common Agriculture Policy, the used metod of the comprehensive analysis of the feritilization for 2010 year constitutes a good starting point to the evaluation of the occurent changes.
