Agriculture

Today qualified legal and information support is no less important for agricultural enterprises then experienced agronomists or veterinarians. It is this way due to the fact that agriculture is one of the most regulated spheres of business. It is almost impossible to orientate in a variety of rules determining the production and trade quotas, possible scope and rules of a fiscal assistance and safety requirements of agricultural products. It should also be mentioned that entrepreneurs in the agricultural sector have to deal with dozens of regulatory bodies national and foreign in case of exporting their products.

The same way in the international trade the agricultural products sector is the one of the most protected. Sometimes difficulties in defining rates of custom tariff cause more problems then tariff burden itself. As a vivid example could be the system of "input prices" in the EU.

The regulations in the sphere of land usage are also very complicated.

Therefore, the legal assistance of European Law Group will be useful in case of

• organizing agricultural enterprise and planning its activity
• obtaining necessary permits and licenses
• applying mechanisms of state support for agriculture
• international trade activity in the agricultural sector
• ensuring compliance with products safety requirements, including creation of systems of hazard analysis and critical control points (HACCP) and foreign supervisory bodies inspections.
