Normative aspects of restricting the allotment of farmland and woodland to non-agricultural and non-forest purpose

Abstract

The Polish legislative law greatly protects farm and woodland. In view of this fact it is unacceptable to use one’s farm or wood property freely as allotting farm or woodland to non-agricultural or non-forest purposes is legally restricted. The constitutional institution of ownership is highly limited in case of such properties. Counteracting the degradation of farm and woodland is more important than using one’s property freely. Among others, counteracting imposes the legislative obligation of meeting the requirements that would allow to allot farm and woodland to non-agricultural and non-forest purposes.
