Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is identify the knowledge of the idea of agricultural producer groups among students of agricultural schools. Despite the large number of initiatives to support the development of producer groups, for both of a promotional or educational nature, integration among Polish farmers still is not popular. It was pointed out that the trend to increased integration of farmers younger and better educated, suggests that greater attention should be paid on the system of agricultural education. Relatively well-developed network of agricultural schools is the potential to promote the idea of producer groups. However, the study did not show direct correlation between the occurrence of the agricultural schools and the formation of producer groups. Despite the possibility of implementing by agricultural school educational module on the functioning of producer groups, knowledge of ideas among students is poor.
