Summary/Abstract: The first farmers’ association in Szadek was the Stanisław Staszic association, set up in 1906 by the owner of Wola Krokocka, Jerzy Karol Kurnatowski. However, due to lack of financial support it soon ended its activity. Farmers’ associations started to be formed in the Kingdom of Poland after tsar’s order of 4 March 1906, which permitted such activity. In 1907, at the initiative of Kazimierz Czarnowski, owner of a landed estate in Prusinowice, another farmers’ association was formed, which functioned as part of the Central Farmers’ Association. In the years 1907–1026 the association’s chairmen were, successively: Kazimierz Czarnowski (1907–1908), Father Stanisław Mirecki (1908–1911), Franciszek Paczkowski (1911–1914), Hoppe (1914–1920), Jan Wróblewski (1920–1922), Adam Nencki (1923–1925), Stanisław Leopold (1925) and Michał Zabłocki (from 1926).
