حدود السلطة الإدارية في مواجهة ترك استغلال الأرض الزراعية

Abstract

Because agricultural land is of great importance in all countries due to its role in human life in economic and social terms, therefore legislation, including Iraq and Egypt, is keen to restrict the actions of individuals, so it has to be exploited for purposes consistent with its nature, i.e. cultivating it and not leaving it without legitimate excuse, and to ensure that legislation gives powers to the administration to control the actions of individuals, as the administration exercises its supervisory role by monitoring the abandoned land and alerting its owners to the need to exploit them and otherwise the necessary punishment is imposed. This varies according to the legislation, in Egypt it has been sanctioned by criminal sanctions, yet the administration contributes to notifying the competent courts, while the Iraqi legislator adopted the administrative penalty, which is the dissolution of the land, whether it is owned by the persons or burdened with the rights of the persons, the cancellation of the distribution for the distributed land, and the avoidance of contracts for agricultural contracts to which the administration is a party.
