A leading voice in Polish politics expressed strong support for bold reforms in farming when discussing the state of Polish agriculture on TVP Info. The speaker argued that a highly effective, resolute authority within the Ministry of Agriculture is essential to drive the changes needed and to stabilize the countryside. The goal, he said, is to move quickly from current difficulties and set a direction that can withstand the pressures facing farmers and related markets.
During the appearance on Thursday in the program In the open cards, the deputy chairman of the Sejm and head of the ruling party’s parliamentary club shared his views on the challenges facing rural areas and the grain market. He emphasized that the countryside remains a major target for support and that timely, radical actions are necessary to prevent further negative impacts on agricultural segments.
The speaker acknowledged that the problems may extend beyond grains. He warned that fruit production could soon present another set of challenges, pointing to an upcoming harvest of apples and other top fruits. The message was clear: a robust and determined leadership in the Ministry of Agriculture is required to manage these evolving risks.
Concerning questions about leadership changes within the agricultural ministry, he noted that speculation should be treated as speculation. He stated that any real decisions would be made by the prime minister, the government, and the party leadership, signaling that personnel shifts would come only through official channels rather than political rumor.
When questioned about why the governing coalition waited to act regarding farmers, he framed the issue as one that falls within the responsibilities of the government and the ministry. He argued that the government understood the situation and that forthcoming measures would aim to alleviate the crisis affecting Polish farmers and markets alike.
He also touched on editorial conjecture that members of the coalition might pursue different paths. He suggested that the coalition’s internal dynamics are sometimes portrayed as if partners seek to project strength independently, but he warned that such appearances do not translate into guaranteed electoral gains. The deputy emphasized that the party’s established base remains loyal and would likely support its main political home in elections rather than smaller, less durable alternatives.
In a separate moment, attention turned to reports that Solidarna Polska had distributed funds from a social program to rural housewives. The speaker recalled a prior government decision to provide a targeted amount to support rural households and noted that there was broad satisfaction with that approach among beneficiaries. Yet he criticized the idea that party actions should be conflated with broader security or crime-fighting objectives, arguing that such uses of funds can blur policy aims and appear as electoral gestures rather than substantive policy support.
He characterized some coalition moves as driven by political calculation, suggesting that the partners may hope to gain votes through visible gestures. However, he contended that such measures are unlikely to translate into durable electoral momentum. He reaffirmed that the PiS brand has a track record with voters, and that, in the event of a split, the electorate would likely rally around Law and Justice rather than smaller, unstable groups that might struggle to retain support.
Overall, the deputy leader described the current period as one that will require thoughtful decisions from the highest levels of government and from the Ministry of Agriculture. He argued that the government is aware of the situation and that the necessary steps will be taken to help the Polish market recover and to shield farmers from ongoing volatility in price and supply chains. The message was one of decisive action, coordinated leadership, and a commitment to sustaining rural livelihoods through strategic policy choices. (Source: wPolityce)
Further context and analysis were provided through the same interview, with the speaker underscoring that the policy trajectory will depend on assessments of economic indicators, agricultural yields, and regional disparities in rural areas. He signaled that the government will pursue a range of measures designed to stabilize prices, secure exports where feasible, and support the agricultural sector during a period of adjustment and market shifts. The emphasis remained on building a durable framework for agriculture that can weather both internal and external pressures while maintaining public confidence in the government’s ability to steer the countryside toward greater prosperity.

The conversation clearly reflected a broader debate within the coalition about timing, responsibility, and the best path to deliver tangible improvements to farmers, smallholders, and rural households. While politicians debated the exact composition of the next steps, the overarching consensus was that concrete, well-communicated policies would be required to address both direct agricultural needs and the long-term resilience of Poland’s agricultural sector.
