Grunty leśne jako składnik gospodarstwa rolnego

Abstract

Recent statistical data has revealed that the share of private forests in the total area of forest in Poland is growing. Consequently, the tendency entails the need to undertake research on the substance and legal status of forestland as a farmstead component. Its results indicate that in the current legal status, a farmstead may include not only forestland constituting separate property with rights held by its owner, but also forestland with rights held by other entities. The condition to recognise forestland as an element of a farmstead is the existence of organisational and functional ties. The ties exist if the forest management within a farmstead aims at satisfying the needs of the farmstead, in particular, protecting or enhancing the usefulness of farmland. The contents of the law on the ownership right to forestland which composes a farmstead do not diff er from the contents of the ownership right to forestland which does not compose such a productive unit. Above all, it should be emphasised that the owner’s rights to undertake activities which result in deriving gains from forestland exceeding the objective scope of profi ts of a thing are excluded.
