Abstract

In the Federal Republic of Germany farm tenancy arrangements are subject to very little interference from the authorities. Legal regulations provide for free negotiation of rental contracts and favour long-term leases. Renting farmland is recognised as an important means of structural improvement. In order to increase the supply of leasehold land, landowners are encouraged, by public payments, to give up farming and to let their land out on lease. Most leasehold land supplements owned land on farms of mixed tenure. It helps, therefore, to improve the economic situation of owner-operators. Very few farms are entirely rented.
