Polish Ministry of Agriculture proposes new legislation suspending for 5 years sales of the state owned agricultural land from former state farms currently administered by the Agricultural Properties Agency (APA). According to the justification of the Ministry of Agriculture, the proposed legislation aims to strengthen the protection of agricultural land in Poland from speculative purchases by domestic and foreign buyers after May 1, 2016 when the grace period for sales of agricultural land to foreigners granted to Poland after EU accession will expire.
