00:00When I decided to move to the Strobiec commune, I knew that it was a difficult area,
00:08that it was the weakest commune in terms of economic and economic development,
00:13with the lowest level of agriculture in the Białobrzesk poviat.
00:17But this area attracted me, because I had already lived in this area for three years.
00:23And I knew that it was a difficult area and that I would have a lot of work to do.
00:27Here, the grain is small, because of the belt.
00:31Wheat is not grown today.
00:34Wheat is the 20th area.
00:38Low fertilization, here the NPK fertilization is 80 kilograms,
00:44where, compared to my family village, there is already 180.
00:51We know that more than 600 people come to work from our commune.
00:57They leave for Warsaw, for Kozienice.
01:02In the belief that this is their land, they don't spend it.
01:13They told me to go to Lublin, because they have to go here,
01:17because there are no parts.
01:20It was raining last year.
01:23When it was possible to drive, the discharges were broken.
01:27There was a shortage of parts.
01:30Who is to blame? The wheel is not to blame.
01:33I am the one who took it.
01:36We also have a loader for wheat.
01:39These drivers are not trained for this line, because they are even young.
01:43He has been working here for 8 months.
01:46He also doesn't know how to do it.
01:49When he goes to the field, he says, why do I need such a loader?
01:53I have seen such a loader.
01:56Here it goes, here it goes, here it goes.
01:59I don't want such a loader.
02:02I know how to do it, but I don't want to.
02:05I don't want to.
02:08We decided to put the tractors here,
02:11so that they wouldn't break.
02:14I think that in the future,
02:17if the situation is still like it is now,
02:20then, I'm sorry, why do we need a wheel,
02:23when the wheel is supposed to be used to help the farmers?
02:26Then we will give the tractors to the peasants, let them buy them.
02:29The head of the municipality.
02:32A new position, a wide range of rights and obligations.
02:35This is Marcin Kaczorek, 31 years old.
02:38He is a zoologist after the school of agriculture
02:41and after the practice abroad in Switzerland.
02:44The commune of Stromiec near Białobrzeg,
02:47which he currently heads, is not really foreign to him,
02:50but everything has to be started from the beginning.
02:53Talk to people, get to know their problems,
02:56and most importantly, not to close one's eyes,
02:59to realistically assess difficult rural problems.
03:06And what happened to these lights?
03:09Well, I think that the older generation,
03:12or it's difficult to generalize everyone here,
03:15I think that somehow it will be.
03:18It's not so bad, we can make a mistake,
03:21because the one who was to blame,
03:24was to blame for these objective difficulties.
03:27There is a review commission in the government,
03:30there is a president, a manager,
03:33a driver, a tractor driver,
03:36so they should take care of it.
03:39On the other hand, there is a POM instructor,
03:42there is a PZKR instructor, so we already have two instructors.
03:45There is a farmer's instructor from the commune,
03:48so we already have three instructors,
03:51who come from time to time.
03:58If you attach it, the season will come and it won't be.
04:01But when will it be done?
04:04When will it be done?
04:07The season will come.
04:10It's winter, and now you have to go to the field.
04:13There is still a lot of time before it's done.
04:16I know, but it has to be done now.
04:31I won't be comfortable with this.
04:34It's the same as I had with my mother.
04:37What should I do with them?
04:40My task and my dream is to teach people
04:43a solid and honest job.
04:46An interesting person comes,
04:49so that he is served,
04:52so that he leaves with the conviction
04:55that I came to the office from here
04:58and that I have to be served.
05:01We introduced that we serve people who are interested.
05:04These are mostly people who are employed.
05:07Most of these people are employed.
05:10And all of a sudden he stands,
05:13and here is such a boss,
05:16and he sits down.
05:19It doesn't work that way.
05:22It's different when you talk more honestly.
05:25When I was fired from the office,
05:28they said that over a thousand zlotys
05:31was paid by the state.
05:34I had to pay it.
05:37I had to borrow the money and pay it.
05:40I found out that others,
05:43who were able to pay it,
05:46didn't pay it because they deserved it.
05:49Why didn't I deserve it?
05:52I had to go to the right place.
05:55I didn't have a pillow under my head
05:58because I didn't have a pillow.
06:01I had nothing here.
06:04I had a lot of children.
06:07Where did they come from?
06:10We give you money
06:13because we have to check with the children.
06:16If they can't pay,
06:19we will provide them with food.
06:22You are from Ducie Wola.
06:25Yes, I am from Ducie Wola.
06:28What's the difference?
06:31There is 13 zlotys,
06:34here is 15 zlotys,
06:37here is 70 or 80 zlotys more this year.
06:40I don't know why.
06:43The first thing is that in 1972
06:46there were less potatoes.
06:49Yes, it was 6.20,
06:52and this year someone added more potatoes.
06:55How is it possible?
06:58There was a mistake,
07:01so you will go to the report.
07:04We worked on it for a month.
07:07Now I hear some opinions
07:10that it has changed.
07:16The instructor told me that there is a farm.
07:19It surprised me.
07:2218 hectares of land,
07:25buildings like this.
07:28I couldn't do it.
07:31How old are you?
07:3474.
07:374 wives.
07:4064.
07:43He doesn't want to do it.
07:46Who is he?
07:49A driver.
07:52How much would you get for this pension?
07:55Yes.
07:58I have to tell you.
08:01For these 18 hectares
08:04you would get 1200 zlotys per month.
08:07If you would give the buildings,
08:10which are worth up to 100,000 zlotys,
08:13you would get 120 zlotys.
08:161320 zlotys per month.
08:19One of the reasons for the emigration
08:22of these young people to the city
08:25is the fact that here in the village
08:28there are no social centers,
08:31no entertainment,
08:34everything you can achieve in the city.
08:41You have to start
08:44with a lot of investments,
08:47which are necessary.
08:50I mean building a health center,
08:53a pharmacy, a community school,
08:56a milk depot,
08:59where there would be a bath,
09:02a village bath and a store in Biały.
09:05I would also like to move the water supply
09:08and connect a group of farmers
09:11who could benefit
09:14from the good water,
09:17the Głębinów water.
09:20We talk about machines,
09:23about everything, but we forget
09:26about what is most necessary.
09:29We are like a botanical garden,
09:32a village and a colony,
09:35and we have to water it.
09:38Then there will be a tractor
09:41and a lot of work.
09:44We have a few hectares on Pirog,
09:47we watered the meadows,
09:50and now we have to water
09:53both the meadows and the fields.
09:56Then we can work properly.
09:59We have a lot of meadows,
10:02half of which is plowed.
10:05The meadows are well-managed.
10:08There is a possibility of collecting
10:11the third harvest,
10:14which could be used for sowing.
10:17But at that moment,
10:20there was a small interest
10:23of the farmers in the sowing.
10:26Although they were informed
10:29that they were going to sow
10:32the sowing sacks,
10:35one farmer came to the show.
10:38It was a big deal for our area.
10:41I just want to say
10:44that I persuaded the farmer
10:47to sow the sows.
10:50I told him that he would get
10:53500 zlotys as a reward.
10:56Of course, he agreed.
10:59But if I told him to sow the sows,
11:02there was nothing to talk about.
11:05What I want to emphasize here
11:08is that there is a lack of tradition.
11:11Secondly, there is nothing
11:14for the farmer to do with the sows.
11:17Everything is beautiful,
11:20but we have to focus on something else.
11:23There are people who are
11:26careless.
11:29The winter is coming,
11:32the buildings are falling apart,
11:35and there is no one to take care of them.
11:38That's why I'm going to operate
11:41my own farm.
11:44It's spring now,
11:47and the Department of Agriculture
11:50wanted to plough the land
11:53and we did it.
11:56We ploughed enough
11:59to grow better grass.
12:02My father loved the land.
12:05He raised me in such a way
12:08that now I can't see
12:11how the land is falling apart.
12:14My heart hurts.
12:17Every piece of the land
12:20has been used.
12:23This is my upbringing,
12:26my love for the land.
12:29If I'm not a farmer,
12:32if I'm not a neighbour,
12:35then I'm not a farmer,
12:38but I felt the agricultural service
12:41so much that I said,
12:44I'm not a farmer,
12:47but I'm a farmer.
