Summary/Abstract: The history of Polish and European rural development policy and agriculture indicates that rural development is gradual, requires a lot of commitment and time. The constitutive bodies of local government units have a great importance in shaping this policy. Their tasks of rural development and agriculture are of a diverse nature, which results from the systemic position of the organs and the scope of their activity. These are tasks related to, among others with the implementation of local tax policy in rural areas, shaping the beekeeping sector or supporting the local economy of rural areas. In addition, the activities undertaken for the development of rural areas in Poland by the authorities constituting municipalities and provinces are complementary to each other. The commune council directly influences the situation of a member of a small rural community. However, the voivodship parliament is involved in creating a uniform rural policy in all rural areas of the whole country.
