The purpose of the article is to try to answer the question of whether and to what extent the form of support mentioned above ensures the durability of farming for an agricultural producer. The analyzed RDP 2014–2020 action is implemented as a part of two operations, i.e. limiting the possibilities of the spread of African swine fever virus (ASFV) and protecting agricultural production against the effects of adverse weather phenomena. Creating favorable financial conditions in these cases and introducing clear legal regulations contributes to the increase of farmers’ interest in adopting specific attitudes towards active risk management of agricultural activity and thus further contributes to increasing their resilience to emerging crisis situations. This tool significantly affects the protection of the workshop of agricultural producers. Based on the analysis of the research material, final conclusions are presented, indicating possible recommendations that should be implemented when designing the framework for the future financial perspective of the European Union for 2021–2027.
