ABSTRACT
The paper analyses the sustainability level of agricultural production in the ecological, social and economic aspect in 50 organic farms located in the southern Poland. Material and energy inputs, balancing the organic substance, work burdening and economic and production effects were assumed as the measures used for the assessment of those three categories of balancing the production process. Area of agricultural land was accepted as a comparative criterion. It was found out that the assumed criteria of sustaining the production process are met in majority in the investigated farm groups. Statistical analysis proved a significant relation between the area of agricultural land and the basic measures of the production sustainability and the Duncan test showed significant differences between the area groups.
