Agricultural production environment is a farmer’s workspace. Any changes in this environment will affect economic functioning of farms – namely, changes of costs and expenses during production process. The study presents an attempt at determining indicators which would describe expected spatial and economical effects of designing rural land afforestation project. The study also assesses expected results of the implementation of afforestation and describes the loss of the optimum in spatial structure. In the study there was used Noga’s method to assess the results of land consolidation works. The aim of the study is to prove that Noga’s method is useful for assessing changes of ownership plots’ borders in farms, together with preliminary assessment of land consolidation demand. In order to use the method for qualifying land for consolidation or land exchange, the study suggests possible improvement of Noga’s method.
