Components of agricultural law

  • Lease: do you lease or rent land? Or are you planning to lease or rent land? We advise on rules related to tenancy and lease agreements. This also falls under agricultural law.
  • Land consolidation: when is land consolidation? Is your land valued correctly? Do you disagree with the plan of allocation or the list of monetary arrangements? We will guide you through the various processes of land consolidation.
  • Expropriation: the municipality wants to expropriate your land in order to realize its new zoning plan. First come negotiations, then possibly the expropriation procedure.
  • Real agricultural rights: for example, easements, rights of superficies, usufruct and mortgage. Major (financial) interests may be involved.
  • Agricultural quality policy agricultural law: agricultural quality policy is primarily concerned with public health, rearing duties and other quality requirements imposed by the government. These aspects carry legal implications for your business
  • Agricultural market policy: as a farmer, you have to deal with surcharges, quotas, milk premiums, sugar payments and other aspects of agricultural market policy. We know this world inside out and help you with advice on the legal aspects of all these matters.
