Energy poverty is a significant problem for households in Poland today, especially given the sharp rises in energy prices. The multifaceted nature of issues related to energy poverty, both from the point of view of the causes and the effects, serves as a catalyst for research efforts aimed at analysing and assessing the phenomenon of energy poverty. This article presents the findings of a study on how farmer households self-assess their knowledge and attitudes toward energy poverty. The results were interpreted in the context of objective measurements of the level of energy poverty in Poland. The research sample comprised 480 farming households from Poland for the 1st research stage and 60 households for the 2nd stage. The study employed the diagnostic survey method with the use of a questionnaire. While the level of self-assessment among the studied households is relatively high, a certain dissonance is evident between the level of self-assessment and objective measurements. The research results can help inform social and economic policies, particularly in institutions focused on identifying and addressing energy poverty
