Opis (eng)

Abstract: The share of leased land on agricultural farms has been increasing in recent years. With growing demand, rental prices are rising and there is constant interest in agricultural land. The aim of the paper is to point out the problems of tenants of agricultural land, from searching for land for lease, to getting information about the offer of land, to terminating the contract, but also to propose appropriate solutions to the problem. Quantitative and qualitative analysis was used in the paper, and the data was obtained from scientific and professional literature and a survey questionnaire conducted on agricultural farms in the Zapadnobački District of AP Vojvodina. The results show that the share of leased land on farms in Zapadnobački District is relatively high, and leasing has an advantage over land purchase. When asked how to find agricultural land for rent, 79.2% of respondents stated that the landowners offered them the land themselves. Lessors are the state, legal entities, other farms, and the largest share of leased land is owned by natural persons. 70.8% of lease contracts are concluded in writing. The lease price is the most important element of the contract, and the time period, distance from the land, etc. are also important. Generally, a term of at least 3 years is agreed upon. 3/4 of tenants pay a slightly higher rental price every year. Problems related to the termination of the lease contract were also identified, where 45.8% of respondents determined that the lessor wants to terminate the contract prematurely, although the reasons are not always justified. The rent range for land ranges from €100 to €450 with an upward trend, which is a key problem. In addition, non-transparent bidding, early cancellation of contracts, lack of land for lease, are problems faced by tenants. Tenants could take more measures to keep the contract in force, and it is certainly recommended to do business with landowners, who have a good reputation.
