The article presents considerations regarding the role that the owners of “small agricultural farms” and the members of their families play in rural communities. The author takes up the question of the need to precisely define the category of agricultural farms referred to as “small” or as “small producers” and analyzes opinions formulated by representatives of various branches of science on the present and future role of such farms. The main subject of the article is the condition of social capital in the rural areas of Poland, the capital's inclusive or exclusive character, and clearly observable changes that have occurred in the recent years, especially in the attitudes of farmers after the accession of Poland to EU. Basing on the results of a poll conducted by CBOS in 2007 the author formulates a negative answer to the question whether small farms, or more precisely the owners of small farms, constitute a group that distinctly differs in some way from other groups, for example, from the group of farmers who are large producers. In the light of conducted research persons linked to small farms co-create social capital in the same measure as all the remaining farmers and inhabitants of rural areas.

The article brings back to our memory the ideas of agrarism and the fates of political formation that tried to introduce these ideas into the public and political life of Poland after the Second World War. However, the ideas of agrarism and the political formation implementing its goals and values suffered a defeat in the clash with the doctrine binding in People's Poland. The author describes the way in which this important experience of Polish peasants was erased from the tradition and memory of the Polish nation. She points to the intentional character of the discontinuation of agraristic tradition and the role played in this process by reprisals of the Stalinist period. She shows the contemporary, complex consequences of the ennoblement of socialist solutions and the social costs of the marginalization of democratic, solidary solutions of agrarism that lost in 1947.
