Peasant farms: Worth It

The history of Russian peasant farm is a period of Stolypin's reforms in 1906. It was his idea to a large extent formed the basis for a new agricultural policy of perestroika Russia, where domestic agriculture has come to a new stage in its development.In 1990, after a long period of collective farms and state farms, once again talking about the private farms.At the same time it has created an appropriate legal framework governing their work.Today, the legal basis for individual farms is the Federal Law № 74-FZ of 11.06.2003 (amended on 25.12.2012, the).

stimulating the development of agriculture, the government supports the creation and growth of peasant associations.In many regions, free of charge rent land for farming, are distinguished by initial grants and soft loans for development.However, not everyone who lives on the ground hard, decided to officially register their activities.In many ways, the receipt of income from personal infield is affordable and profitable.

One of the first pitfalls awaiting young peasant farm, is a defect of the status of citizens' associations.Under the terms of the Act of 1990, KFH registered as legal entities.Today this demand is canceled, only the head of household is made entrepreneur, while remaining an individual.But reports continue to apply the standards set for legal entities.There is confusion, compounded by the fact that many previously based economy did not change the status of the (permitted).

is problematic section and property shares in a situation where one of the participants left the peasant farm.More precisely, this option is not provided at all, it is assumed only monetary compensation commensurate make share.Section property is permissible only when KFH leave all its members, fully stopping his work.Obviously, the risk of losing their property stops potential farmers.

significant legal difficulties met by the peasant economy in the event of the sudden death of his head.Answers to questions about how to be in this case the share of the deceased, how to carry out renewal of the economy and its property remain largely untested.

another serious problem: social support.On the one hand, members of peasant farms are eligible for social benefits in full.This seniority, pension accrual policy for health care, sick pay and annual leave, payment of maternity and parental leave, etc.But in practice, people are faced with problems.For example, the peasant farm rents statements once a year.And for income verification in USPN need to provide data for 3 or 6 months.Because of this discrepancy, many members of farmers can not receive legal benefits and payments.This is also the reason for the unpopularity KFH population.

Many questions causes and formulation of activities that may be engaged in peasant farming.According to the text of Art.19 of the Law № 74-FZ, the main activities should be production and processing of agricultural products on their own.However, given the relative freedom in the choice of additional activities is not always coincident with the main.At the same time it never regulated their specific listing.Therefore, each region is free to interpret in their own way, whether for the establishment of KFH valid, for example, shop for production of canned food company, making fur or wool production.After all, in fact, all of these activities may be regarded as the processing of agricultural products, may not be recognized as such.

Because of such shortcomings in the law regulating the activities of farmers, many are hesitant to officially registered businesses, preferring to extract revenue only from land plots which are in private ownership.Of course, the prospects are less, but the responsibility, and not so scary.
