# UOKiK fine against Procam for unfair agricultural contracts > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/uokik-fine-against-procam-for-unfair-agricultural-contracts > Updated: 2026-09-13T09:30:03.000Z. Sources: 7. Developments: 2. The President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK) imposed a fine exceeding one million PLN on the company Procam due to unfair contractual practices involving agricultural producers. Investigations determined that Procam used its contractual advantage to shift weather-related risks entirely onto farmers. The company’s contract templates required the delivery of full quantities of crops—including rapeseed, barley, oats, wheat, and rye—even if harvests were destroyed by uncontrollable factors such as drought, frost, or hail. Regulators noted that Procam’s definition of force majeure excluded common weather events, instead limiting such protections to occurrences like war, hurricanes, or strikes. Furthermore, the company required farmers to provide notice of such events within a two-day window, which was deemed an unreasonably short timeframe. Procam cooperated with authorities and voluntarily submitted to the financial penalty. The company has implemented new contract templates as of June 2026. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-13: Procam fined over 1 million PLN for unfair agricultural contracts Poland's UOKiK fined Procam over one million PLN for unfair contracts that forced farmers to deliver crops despite droughts or frosts, failing to recognize common weather events as force majeure. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/procam-fined-over-1-million-pln-for-unfair-agricultural-contracts ### 2026-09-09: Procam fined over 1 million PLN by UOKiK for unfair agricultural contracts Poland's UOKiK fined Procam over one million PLN for unfair contracts that forced farmers to bear all weather-related risks, such as drought and hail, despite crop failures. 4 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/procam-fined-over-1-million-pln-by-uokik-for-unfair-agricultural-contracts --- Cite as: UOKiK fine against Procam for unfair agricultural contracts.
