Abstrakt: This article discusses Poland's new farmers: people who have left the city to engage in agriculture and urban people with a ruralbackground who return to their villages to start farming. We analysed their mode of production using the categories of van der Ploeg (2018).: We also focused on the relations between the new farmers and their communities. The results show that new farmers farm in a peasant-like way. However, they also constitute a distinctive group benefiting from their urban links. Social and cultural capital plays a crucial role differentiating the new farmers/peasants from traditional peasants. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
