Summary/Abstract: The leasing of arable lands is one of the forms of land allocation by the Agricultural Property Agency. This is also a method of increasing land acreage without the need to make any purchase. After Poland joined the structures of the European Union, the increase in the number of neighbour-to-neighbour agreements registered in the land and building registration system (concluded between natural persons, most frequently neighbours) was observed. Certainly, the reason is the possibility of obtaining area payments by the leaseholders. The land leased by the Agricultural Property Agency very often returns from lease. The reasons for this are various, from transferring this land to municipalities or to the State Forest Administration, through expiry of agreements due to the lapse of time, breaches of contractual terms by the leaseholders (failure to pay leasehold rent or subleasing the land to another person without the consent of the APA). The article is an attempt to analyse the status of leasing in the municipality of Biskupiec.
