Résumé This Law provides for the administration, rights of use and protection of pastures and meadows. Pasture and meadows are every kind of land covered by grass or shrubs which forms part of agricultural land or the forest fund according to the cadastral documentation of 1 August 1991 (and not being classified afterwards) which is used for grazing by livestock (art. 2). Pastures and meadows are classified as State-owned, State-owned made available for general use, and pastures and meadows in private or co-ownership (art. 3). Private pastures and meadows of which ownership is certified by legal documents and have clear borders shall be subject to restitution to ex-owners and heritable persons who shall enjoy all the rights of private property (art. 4). Pastures and meadows of the State can be given in tenancy to native natural and legal persons (art. 6). Change of destination of pastures and meadows require approval of either ministry officials or the Minister or the Council of Ministers, depending upon the size of the land in question (art. 8). Provisions of Chapter III deal with contracts of tenancy of State-owned pastures and meadows and the use of such lands. Chapter IV provides for the management and protection of pastures and meadows. The text consists of 29 articles.
