description In the light of horticultural market globalization, Polish producers who operate on small area of cultivation and use poor technical facilities, become uncompetitive in relation to the horticultural producer of the EU-15. One solution of this problem is to cooperate within fruit and vegetables producers groups. It increases the potential of the horticultural market, allows to sell products at higher prices, as well as eliminate indirect distribution channels. In addition, associated producers can purchase and use production materials and conduct promotional activities. It was examined how, in practice, joint activities of farm owners in established groups are carried out, what the reasons for the accession to the producer groups are and how producers assess their decisions. The study was conducted on fruit and vegetable producers groups and organisations from Grójec and Rawa regions. The studies support the view of the growing interest in the interaction of groups of producers. Joint cooperation improves prospering of horticultural farms and increases their market potential.
