PSL (Polish Peasant Party)

The Polish Peasant Party (PSL) is a political organization in Poland that primarily represents rural communities, farmers, and agricultural interests. Founded in 1895, it has a long history of advocating for rural development, agricultural policy, and social issues affecting peasants. The party emphasizes the importance of family farms, sustainable agriculture, and rural traditions, often promoting policies aimed at supporting farmers' economies and preserving rural culture. While it has evolved over time, PSL remains a significant player in Polish politics, focusing on rural welfare and ensuring that the needs of countryside residents are represented in government decisions.
