In the study, a polemic was undertaken regarding the assessment of the nature of farmers’ social insurance pursuant to Article 5a and Article 5b of the Act on Farmers’ Social Insurance of 20 December 1990 (Journal of Laws 2021, item 266, as amended). As a result of an established practice, as to the compulsory nature of social insurance for farmers pursuant to Article 5a of this Act, there may be discrepancies in the interpretation of solutions contained in the Act on Farmers’ Social Insurance but it may also have a significant impact on other rights, including the granting (or reimbursement) of financial assistance for the commencement of non-agricultural activities in rural areas, from which farmers may be excluded. It should be added that, for this reason, this issue is very important not only in the context of farmers’ social insurance. Interestingly, this subject matter is not generally addressed in the literature, so there is no standpoint in this regard.
