The aim of the research was to analyze and evaluate socio-vocational changes in agriculture in provincial cities in Poland and their functional areas. Analyses were based on materials taken from 1996, 2002 and 2010 Census of Agriculture. Research showed that in cities and their functional areas the dynamics of disorganization processes in a vocational sphere, including decrease in the percentage of agricultural families, in the number of farm managers, in the number of farms having their incomes from agriculture, was faster than on average in Poland. While those transitions were the most visible in provincial cities, they were easing off further from provincial cities.
