This stems from the fact that the basic organisational unit in agricultural production is found in the farm, which, precisely, includes a specific property. It is not enough to speak, in this case, of only the individual components of that property — they are important only when seen as an element of an organised whole — the farm. In that capacity, they are subject to a specific legal regulation. Since the abridgement of the Constitution in 1983, the hitherto accepted content of "'socialistic changes" discussed in art. 15 point 1, has assumed a different meaning. The present objective of "socialisation" is interpreted in a totally different manner than before. The postulate of socialisation pertains to all forms of property, and its object is an optimal meeting of social requirements and the realisation of human rights.. The new formula of art. 131 C.C. can be seen as an authentic expression of the Constitutional norm and its logical complement. Agricultural ownership performs two specific functions — a productive and a social and political one. They overlap with the traditional function, which oworship has always performed. The actual situation of the owner is defined by numerous laws and regulations outside the C.C. That situation can no longer be treated as an owner's right limited only by public considerations. Agricultural ownership is by nature a complex of rights and duties. In the realm of agricultural ownership protection, the object of protection and the range (intensity) of protection, are of particular significance. There is a difference, though, between the protection of farm ownership as a whole, and that of the individual components of the farm. What is most difficult is the problem of protecting farm ownership in terms of its attribute of the right to utilize a thing. The fewest problems, in turn, are created by the protection of a different attribute of ownership — the possession right.polinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessArtykuł
