There are legal differences in rental agreements for agricultural land between a short-term period of up to five years and long-term period of over five years. The legal side of a long-term rental agreement is more detailed and complex, the obligations of the parties are more inclusive and theire violations are sanctioned with invalidation of the agreement. The long-expected market with the agricultural land has not developed. As it follows from the research, there is developing, especially in lucrative areas, market for rental of agricultural land. This market is not without complications due to division of ownership rights among many small owners. In the future, in order to rid of complicated state in users legal relationship to the land, attention should be focused on creation of new legal rules and to look for inspiration in legal systems of other countries, where the institution of rental agreements has been used without any deformations and where regulationary systems emphasize continuity in agricultural land utilisation.
