The main objective of the research was to determine the impact of selected endogenous factors, as well as the amount of subsidies from EU funds on the technical efficiency of production factors in family farms. The research included farms from Bydgoszcz subregion which before pre-accession of Poland to the European Union (1996 -2003) benefited from preferential loans. At the same time, in the years 2004-2011, they kept accounting in the Polish FADN system. Using the regression calculus, the impact of articular factors on the technical efficiency of farms was determined. The structural parameters of linear and non-linear models with many independent variables were estimated. As a result of the conducted analyzes, it was found that they improved efficiency: capital expenditure before and after accession, land area increase before accession, production intensity, increase in equity after accession, asset debt and external costs. However, they worsened efficiency: work expenses, pig stocking, debt of equity, fixed costs as well as additional investment activity and the share of subsidies in income.
