Abstract

The objective of this report is to provide an overview of agricultural land market regulations in the EU Member States. This report builds upon the framework developed by Swinnen, Van Herck and Vranken (2014a) to provide a comprehensive and structured analyses of agricultural land market regulations in different MS. The report describes the situation of land market regulations as in place in 2020 in 22 different MS. The analyses of the report are based on information obtained from the MS country experts using the following three tools (i) structured questionnaires, (ii) semi-structured group interviews and (iii) country reports. Overall, 24 different measures regulating the land markets were identified in the 22 EU MS. The median number of all measures regulating land markets in all 22 MS is 7.88, and the average is about 7 measures. While some countries have heavily regulated markets (e.g. Croatia, Hungary, Poland and Romania), other countries have a very liberal approach to land markets (e.g. Czechia, Denmark, Ireland and Finland). Countries with heavily regulated land markets can mainly be found among the new MS. Countries with the relatively lower number of measurers exercised are mainly from old Member States.
