The cited provisions of the law oblige the land user to utilize the agricultural land with production appropriate to the branch of cultivation, or to prevent the establishment and spread of weeds without continuing production – while complying with soil protection regulations. In addition to monitoring the fulfillment of the utilization obligation, the border inspections cover the detection of the unauthorized use of agricultural land, as well as the examination of the conformity of the cultivation branches in kind and in the real estate register.

Failure to comply with the utilization obligation will result in the imposition of a land protection fine.
