Summary/Abstract: The Agrarian Code draft of 1928 written by W.L. Jaworski was one of the most dare and original concepts of Polish agricultural legislation ever. Unfortunately, it does not hold a significant position in the Polish doctrine of agricultural law to this day. The works of R. Budzinowski regarding the codification of agricultural law have not inspired so far to comprehensively comment this pre-war project. The limitations of this article do not allow for the comprehensive analysis to be prepared, either. Therefore, the article focuses on selected aspects of the Agrarian Code draft – selected assumptions and regulations of the draft (especially the substantive law part) and its reception by scholars and officials just after a few months following its publication (they were extreme – from enthusiastic to rejecting). The article’s summary is a recapitulation of the concept of W.L. Jaworski and reflection on its possible adoption for the theoretical work on the agricultural code in Poland, which is postulated by the Author of this article.
