Il Ministero della Salute si trova ad affrontare un buco di bilancioche nel 2026 potrebbe ammontare fino a 23 miliardi di PLN. Le entrate derivanti dai premi dell’assicurazione malattie coprono una parte minore delle spese del sistema sanitario rispetto al passato.
Come ha sottolineato la ministra della Sanità Jolanta SobieraÅ„ska-Grenda in un’intervista a rynekzdrowia.plnel 2023 i suddetti ricavi sono stati coperti 95 per cento del budget stanziato per il sistema sanitario, e ora questa copertura è scesa a 85 per cento.

**Polish farmer in 2026:**
Do not pay PIT tax – most individual farmers settle as a lump sum under the Agricultural Tax Act, which means no classic income tax. PIT applies only to business activity outside agriculture.
It generates low added value for GDP – the agricultural sector is responsible for about 2-3% of GDP, while its productivity is much lower than in other sectors. Estimates of losses of PLN 15 billion per year appear in analyses of system efficiency, but they are debatable and depend on methodology.
It receives direct subsidies – according to the rules of the EU’s Common Agricultural Policy, subsidies are granted mainly for the area of land, regardless of production efficiency. In 2025, the average subsidy is about 1000–1500 PLN/ha.
It uses cheaper agricultural fuel – farmers can apply for a refund of excise duty for diesel used in agricultural production. In 2025, the refund rate is PLN 1.46/litre.
It does not pay contributions to the Social Insurance Institution (ZUS) or the National Health Fund – farmers are covered by a separate social security system (KRUS), which provides for much lower contributions than the Social Insurance Institution. The health contribution in KRUS in 2025 is about 1/3 of what it is in ZUS.
It uses EU funds – farmers have access to investment programs (e.g. modernization of farms) and social programs (e.g. support in weather crises). In 2025, [m.in](http://m.in) was launched. the “Disaster 2025” program, which provides for compensation of up to PLN 3000/ha for crop losses.
Receives remuneration for not performing work – in disaster situations (e.g. frost, floods), farmers can receive compensation for lost crops, even if they did not carry out sowing. The condition is to document losses exceeding 30% of the average production.
Most of them vote for PiS – according to CBOS and IPSOS surveys, farmers are one of the most loyal electorates of Law and Justice. In the 2023 parliamentary elections, about 67% of farmers supported PiS.
The profession of a farmer is partially closed access to the status of a farmer (e.g. in the context of KRUS, subsidies or farm inheritance) requires certain conditions to be met, such as owning agricultural land and conducting agricultural activity. Not everyone can “enter this system from the street”.
