Abstract

This Decree consists of 4 Chapters divided into 18 articles: General provisions (I); Contractual assignment of land for agricultural production (II); Contractual assignment of production forest land (III); Implementation provisions (IV). The objectives of contractual land assignment are to use land and forest resources in order to raise production and business efficiency of State-run agricultural or forestry farms, to create more jobs and increase incomes, etc. The contractual assignment of land for agricultural production includes assignment contracts of land for planting perennial trees (art. 12), for planting annual crops (art. 13), and of lands with water surface for aquaculture (art. 14). The contractual assignment of production forest land shall include assignment contracts of production forests being natural forests or planted forests (art. 15) and of land for planting production forests (art. 16). Contractual assignments may be stable assignments corresponding to the crop cycle or the business cycle, or stage-based assignments.
