Summary/Abstract: In recent years, Poland has witnessed a decrease in the share of agricultural land in the overall surface area and therefore lands situated on the best soils should be under special protection . The aim of the study was to analyze and evaluate the price formation of agricultural land at the regional and national levels compared with European Union countries. The time scope of the research covered the from 1980 to 2014. We analyzed trends of agricultural real estate markets, particularly in relation to the sale prices of land. The formation of market prices of agricultural land may be significantly associated with the abolition in 2016 regarding the restriction on the sale of land to citizens of other countries (from 01/05/16 new regulations have been applied). Provided regulations are meant to limit an access to land for foreigners, people who speculate their price and entities who wish to use the land for purposes other than agricultural.
