Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this paper was to present the regional diversification of the structure area of utilized agricultural area (UAA) of organic farms compared to the diversification of the structure area of agricultural holdings with UAA in total in Poland. It was based both on the number and area of farms in the area groups of UAA. The vectors’ elimination method was used for the division of voivodeships into subsets similar in terms of analysed structures. In addition, it was investigated the dynamics of these structures in Poland after accession to the European Union. The analysis showed that agriculture, in particular based on organic methods of production is regionally diversified. Changes of the structures in Poland tend to land concentration and reduce the number of farms with a small area of UAA, significantly including organic farms .
