Regulacje obrotu ziemią rolniczą w opinii rolników

Abstract

<jats:p>The purpose of the paper was to diagnose farmers’ awareness of the changes introduced and the relatively greatest difficulties caused by regulations under the Act of 14 April 2016 on suspending the sale of agricultural property of the State Treasury and amending certain acts [Journal of Laws 2016, item 585]. The article also draws attention to the issue of the importance of land lease from the Agricultural Property Stock of the State Treasury. Implementation of the above objectives were based on the results of direct research carried out in the second half of 2016 among 143 farmers in the Elbląski poviat (Warmińsko-Mazurskie Voivodeship). In the vast majority (83.8%) for farmers who lease land from the Agricultural Property Stock of the State Treasury, it is significant. They confirm the operation of the holding on this form of land use. However, it is more important for them to buy such land (51.8% of farmers) than lease. The biggest obstacle in the turnover of land (53.1%) may be the need to meet a number of conditions when purchasing real estate and prohibit the sale of real estate for a period of 10 years from the date of its acquisition. Most farmers (58.7%) confirmed the effectiveness of the introduced regulations in limiting speculative trade in agricultural land.</jats:p>
