Rôle des institutions et des régulations foncières sur le marché foncier agricole : illustration dans la région Bretagne

[paper in French]In France, access to land is heavily regulated by government policies and the status of the tenancy: the counterpart of this restriction of freedom is the relative stability of farmland prices. Unlike in many countries of the European Union the price of land continues to increase in much more problematic proportions. In our paper we describe the functioning of local institutions and legal tools that have a role in the relative stability of prices of agricultural land in France. We illustrate our argument from the Britain example.
