To delimitate agrodemographic regions in Skierniewice administrative province there was performed a correlation analysis on 11 factors, which characterize the demographic structure of population employed peasant sector of agriculture peasant holdings, mechanization, density of cattle and pigs. Correlation of characteristic features was based on Pearson a correlation coefficient. The performed computations reveal a dose, and direct correlation between selected characteristics and their substitutional character production factors. After performing standardization of each characteristic in analyzed spatial unit there were normalized values contained in the + 4 bracket. Sum of normalized values of characteristics for each rural commune provided a basis for delimitation of agrodemographic regions presented on Figure 1

In the nutrition zone of the urban administrative province of Łódź there operate 6 sugar factories (Fig. 1). In their number „Dobrzelin”, „Ostrowy", and „Leśmierz" belong to the Company „Mazowieckie Sugar Factories", „Gosławice" and ,,Zbiersk" are subordinated to the Company „Wielkopolskie Sugar Factories", while „Wieluń" belongs to the Company „Opolskie Sugar Factories". The main product turned out by sugar factories is white sugar, and its volume and quality of production are largely determined by technological value of the supplied raw material. Despite a substantial amount of sugar beet purchased by the sugar factories, the output of sugar was showing a downward trend over the years 1975— 1978. The main cause of this situation should be sought in gradual reduction of sugar content in beets. "A big amount of the raw material with a low polarization extends the time of the sugar campaign and considerably increases costs of production, which exceeded 16,000 złoty per ton in 1978. The Association of Sugar Producers was dealing with distribution of the product while the size of supplies to particular administrative provinces was regulated by the number of sugar coupons issued to the population. Starting from 1977 the amount of sugar supplied to the market of the Łódź administrative provinces has been quite stable as a rule and amounts to ca. 28,000 ton.

The article begins with a short description of nourishment norms and trends in real food consumption in Poland followed by definition of demand for food in the food zone of Łódź administrative province baing besed on nourishment norm D and average national consumption level. The performed food balance being a comparison between raw agricultural production and demand for food revealed that in the late seventies this zone was able to ensure the consumption of staple foodstuffs for the entire population inhabiting this area both at the level of nourishment norm D and at the average national level: to meet also oth er needs such as export, reproduction etc. Moreover, it accumulated surpluses of grain, meat, potatoes, and sugar beets. On the other hand, production of eggs and milk was insufficient within this zone.

A basic trend in demographic changes occuring in administrative provinces of Central Poland is reduction in the number of agricultural population. In as much as in 1950 the sh a re of population making its livelihood in the agriculture ranged between 36.4 perc. (Kalisz province) and 52.6 perc. (Sieradz province) in 1978 it amounted from 30.4 p er cent to 43.0 per cent respectively. An exception here is the industrial urban province of Łódź in which the agricultural population represented only 4.5 p er cent of the total population. Changes in the number of the population making its livelihood in the agriculture were reflected in the manpower supply measured by the number of the professionally active people per 100 ha of arable land. In all administrative provinces it shows a close correlation with the area structure of farms, level of mechanisation and specialization of the agriculture and ecological conditions. Due to the manpower outflow from the agriculture the Professional structure of the population in provinces of Central Poland will change as well. According to estimates made by the authors in 1990 the share of the population making its livelihood in the agriculture will exceed the national average (12.7 per cent) in this area, and it will amount from 18.9 per cent in Piotrków administrative province to 32.8 per cent in Włocławek province (and 3.1 per cent in the urban province of Łódź).
