När har juridiska personer beviljats förvärvstillstånd av lantbruksfastigheter?

Abstract: The purpose of this report is to study when and why legal persons have been allowed to acquire agricultural properties. The ownership of agricultural property is governed by the Land Acquisition Act. The reason for this is because they want to limit legal person owner-ship of agricultural properties. It is believed that a large proportion of pri-vate ownership is healthy and stimulating for the Swedish countryside. There are some exceptions in which legal persons may be able to acquire. This is a review over decisions taken by the authorities. In this report I have studied purchases made between 2008 and 2010. After summarizing those results I compared them against the Land Acquisition Act. My final conclusion is that the authorities followed the law and reasoning in their decision in the same manner as the legislature had in mind.
