Zadania Agencji Nieruchomości Rolnych oraz ich realizacja

The main tasks of the Agricultural Property Agency have been changed during the last eighteen years. These tasks are defined in art. 6 of the act on management of agricultural property of the State Treasury. The most important changes in this respect were made in 2003 as a result of regulations introduced by the act on formation of agrarian system. In particular the Agricultural Property Agency is obliged to carrying out of the privatization and restructuring of the agricultural properties owned by the State as well as to support improvement of family farms structure. The Agricultural Property Agency, carrying out its tasks, sales and leases the state property by using the tender procedures. To improve family farms structure, the Agency was granted with a statutory pre–emption right as well as with a right of acquisition of agricultural property. However, the final results of its activity are not satisfactory, as in the Agricultural Resources of the State Treasury still remains 2,6 million hectares of land.
