The general level, rate of growth, participation in GDP as well as the structure of finances annually invested in the protection of rural environment were analysed. A ranking of voivodships with regard to the fulfilment of environmental protection and water management investments in rural areas calculated per one inhabitant was prepared. Structures of expenditures in various voivodships were compared. An attempt was made to identify the direction and scope of changes in the structure of expenditures in the analysed period.
