CHOSEN INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENTS IN TRADING OF AGRICULTURAL LAND OF THE STATE TREASURY IN POLAND

This paper discusses the problem of state trading of agricultural land, for which is responsible a state institution – the Agency of Agricultural Real Estates (AARE). The legal conditions and effects of activity were to present. Analysis was bas ed on selected literature, data from the AARE and appropriate legal acts. In essence, the intervention of the Agency on the farmland market involves giving preference, when selling farmland, to people with adequate qualifications who run family farms. The distinguishing feature of the regional branch of the Agency in Warmia and Mazury is the considerable share of state - owned farmland found in this region in the past.
