Aim: This paper analyzes the relationships between the level of innovativeness and selected demographic factors among farm operators in the Mazowieckie voivodeship in Poland. Materials and Methods: The data was collected through direct interviews, using a structured questionnaire conducted on a sample of 109 farmers. Innovativeness was measured by the number of implemented solutions: one or two innovations (basic level) and three or more innovations (advanced level). Results: The analysis revealed differences in the level of innovative activity depending on respond- ents' age, gender, education level, and farm size; however, a statistically significant relationship was identified only in the case of farm size. Male farmers and younger generations were more likely to implement modern solutions. A higher number of implemented innovations was associated with better access to EU funds and a higher level of education. Farms with a designated successor and a larger utilised agricultural area more frequently implemented innovations. Most respondents perceived investments in innovation as economically viable and positively affecting production efficiency and sustainable development in the agricultural sector. Conclusions: The results suggest that the young age of the farm owner and the presence of a successor may foster the implementation of innovations; however, these relationships were not unequivocally confirmed statistically.
