The paper presents the problematic of the merge and exchange processes of land under the following programmes of agricultural land consolidation. By consolidating of land, there was activity for better creation of rural space in order to achieve comprehensive improvement of conditions for farming. According to the Act (1982) there were taken activities to shape the structure of the area, the rational design of land distribution, adjust the boundaries of the property to the system of water management facilities, construction of roads and terrain. After the Polish accession to the EU, there was created a possibility of co-financing of agricultural land consolidation under the three successive EU programmes. The volume of these actions was defined by the level of support, thus in 2004-2006 there were 31 projects realized for the amount of 15.1 million EUR, and in 2007-2013 another 109 consolidation projects were completed - for a total amount of 93.9 million EUR. In the current financial perspective, the indicative budget of the RDP foresees 139.0 million EUR for land consolidation, including 88.4 million EUR from EAFRD means. The analysis of changes of the number of agricultural parcels, which were recorded between agricultural censuses of 2002 and 2010, shows that consolidation of farms was noticed during that time. In 2010, the total number of agricultural parcels dropped from 2,916.3 thousand in 2002 to 2264.6 thousand (22.3 %). The biggest decrease of farms was noticed in the group of holdings with one parcel (44.5 %) and holdings with 2-3 parcels (28.1 %). In the group of holdings having 6-9 parcels, their number increased by 26.8 % and in the group of 10 or more parcels we noticed the increase of 94.4 %.
