Summary/Abstract: From 1 January 2016, revenues of the taxpayer from sale of plant and animal products originating from one’s own crops, farming or breeding, converted (processed) by a non-industrial manner are classified as revenues other sources. In the author’s opinion, the changes achieve only partly the objectives specified in the reasons for the Senate bill amending the Natural Persons’ Income Tax Act and amending the Act on Freedom of Economic Activity. A positive assessment is made of the changes in the Act on Freedom of Economic Activity and the Act on Local Taxes and Fees. The changes in the rules for taxation of income from sale of plant and animal products, processed in a non-industrial manner and originating from one’s own crops or farming, are, according to the author, neutral from the point of view of the criterion of income tax burden.
