The concept of social capital is analysed and a summary of theoretical discussion is presented. To explore the presence of social capital and its impact on economic performance in Zemgale region, we conducted two sociological surveys. We have found that development of farms there is influenced by membership in professional associations, unions, nongovernmental organizations and in cooperatives. The level of trust and social networks also influence the economic growth of farms. So the process of development is multiplix in character. The major input in regional growth is made by farms that have social networks and informal activities not only in the local authority but also on the regional level. One of the ways to increase the social capital in Zemgale and also in Latvia is to establish a unified information centre. Highly effective would be also the strategic guidance of cooperatives and support in rural areas of the lifelong education system.
