Efforts to increase the dynamism and competitiveness of the European agricultural sector, and effective implementation of the strategy "Europe 2020" and its vision to stimulate sustainable development, based on knowledge and innovation, are inseparably linked to the objectives set out in the strategy of the "Innovation Union ". In the fulfillment of these tasks the key role is played by science and the transfer of knowledge which, in rural areas, largely depends on agricultural advisory services. The priorities defined in the strategy "CAP towards 2020" clearly indicate the strategically important role assigned to the farm advisory system (FAS) whose sphere of operation is inseparably connected with the transfer of knowledge and innovations. In Poland, the organizational state of agricultural advisory services as well as the legal and financial conditions of activities in the sphere of research and innovations, whose effects should contribute to economic development, fail to meet the existing expectations. The presented conclusions suggest the directions for necessary systemic changes that will permit to improve the process of introduction of innovative solutions in the agri-food sector and in the services rendered in rural areas. .
