Summary/Abstract: This paper will present the spatial shift-share method as an alternative to classical shift-share analysis. In which it is not taken into account the geographical location of the regions concerned. Many of the economic phenomena, their growth or trends, are dependent on the spatial interactions between neighbouring regions. The problem of spatial relationships solves the spatial weights matrix. Spatial shift-share analysis was introduced to the study of Nazaré and Hewings. This model represents a spatially modified growth rate (rate of change) of individual variants of the phenomenon by taking into account growth rates in phenomena in the neighbouring areas. The aim of this article is to analyse changes in the structure of agricultural production in the Polish provinces in the years 2004 - 2014, by type of agricultural products using spatial shift-share method. The study assesses the growth of the size of the phenomenon. Furthermore, the identified and estimated the share of structural, sectoral and regional in global effect size (in total agricultural production in Poland) in the regional breakdown. Additionally, the spatial weights matrix was included to this study, which allowed the inclusion in the aspects relating to the overlapping relationships subregional.
