In recent years the rural population has been characterised by dynamic migration behaviours. There still exists a large migration potential attributable to excessive labour resources, to the weakness of local labour markets and lower earnings in comparison with incomes earned by the urban population. Despite the diminishing profitability of finding employment abroad and an improvement in the conditions prevailing at home (lower unemployment, acreage payments for farmers) the tendency towards migration continues. The residents of villages, farmers included, show a predisposition to earn money in the lower segments of the labour market, which can be attributed to some features of their ethos as well as to their attitudes and skills. Some of these features are alien to the younger generation of rural residents who are determined to become educated in order to win in the future a better position on labour markets in Poland or abroad.

Activity of economic entities is a very important element of rural areas development. It contributes to increase in income as well as to improvement of living conditions of the rural population. Development of entrepreneurial initiatives requires the existence of institutions that would provide services to business, carry out activities related to business consultancy, help gain capital and participate in enterprises' financing. In rural areas this function can be assigned to cooperative banks, which are the basic financial institutions. This paper presents the aspects of a cooperative bank's cooperation with enterprises operating in rural areas. The paper has been prepared basing on a survey conducted in 15 communes of the Lubelskie voivodeship within a research project supported by the State Committee for Scientific Research (KBN). The analysis concerns the period 1999-2003.

Recent rural and agricultural change in Poland has been analyzed in this paper. We have particularly focused on the direction of this change. We wondered whether despite the particular historical development of the Polish agriculture, there is a noticeable formation of the typical market-oriented farming and non-agricultural economic activities among rural inhabitants. The answer to such a question has been sought in the analysis of economic activity as well as changes in agrarian structure. The National Census 2002 data show that agriculture is no longer the major source of income for the significant part of the rural population. Moreover, the other large part of this population derives the income from welfare and other kinds of benefits. At the same time, the changes in the agrarian structure show the processes of diversification of farms (the disappearing middle), concentration of land in larger farms, increasing level of farm mechanization, increasing average size of landholdings as well as the declining number of them.

The article presents an analysis of the main trends in the changing number of rural population in Poland, the demographic determinants of these trends and changes in the demographic and educational structures of this population in 2006-2009 against the background of respective changes in the earlier years of the present century. Changes observable in the countryside have been compared with those recorded in the urban areas in Poland and in other EU countries. The statistical data for the analysis have been derived mainly from current demographic statistics and Labour Force Surveys (BAEL) conducted by the Central Statistical Office (GUS). For international comparisons the Eurostat data have been used.
