abstract:
The paper presents the results of multifunctional classification of twenty communes in the boundaries of Cedyński, Drawski, Iński, Lower Oder Valey and Szczeciński Landscape Parks. The research revealed that communes within the boundaries of landscape parks are different in terms of agriculture and its impact on the environment. The cluster analysis by Ward’s hierarchic method separated four groups of communes. From the ecological point of view – landscape attractiveness and possibility for non-productive function of agriculture – the most favourable indexes are in groups C and D of the communes. In these groups, the share of agricultural land in total area is the smallest, with relatively high afforestation and permanent grasslands, whereas the share of cereals in sowing structure and percentage of farms dealings with agricultural activity only is the lowest. These areas are suitable for multifunctional development of rural areas.
