Summary:

The following study presents the results of the research concerning land configuration of arable lands that constitute farmsteads located in Filipowice vil-lage. In order to determine basic features of the land configuration of arable lands and farms, the following, specialist computer programs were applied: MKTopo-GUTR, Plikpol and Pole. A basic areal element considered during the research were fields that constitute continuous parts of cadastral plots and comprise a single form of cultivation. The conducted analysis deals with the basic land configuration features that include: land spatial parameters, estimated costs of cultivation depending on land configuration, land location within the village and farm area and farm basic features. So as to carry out a detailed research, certain statistic methods were used. They enable to determine correlation coefficient between the studied features and make it possible to draw up the correlation charts of dispersion. The conducted analysis let us determine to which extent the land configuration of arable lands and farms spatial features influence the expenses related to their cultivation.
