Abstract

The paper considers the systematics of legal relations in agrobusiness. The concept of legal relations in agrobusiness has been formulated. These relations are characterized by the fact that they include the process of development, production, logistics and sales of agricultural products; they are mainly regulated by the norms of the agrarian law; they arise between the clearly defined entities that are interested in agricultural products. The study object of the legal relations in agrobusiness is agrobusiness, the subject analyzed is the things (agricultural equipment) or property (land, agricultural products), intangible benefits (trademarks, geographical indication of goods) in respect of which there is an interest of the participants in this legal relationship. These relations have a primary centeredness to make a profit, and its derivative is meeting the needs of agricultural products’ consumers, ensuring national food security, developing rural areas, supporting environmental safety. They are characterized by private and legal nature as well as they are notable for their business cycle. We propose the classification of the legal relations in the field of agrobusiness that depend: 1) on the sphere of legal regulation: private (that enclose the relations, arising between the equal entities) and public (legal relations that involve an "unequal" entity and provided by the subordination to state bodies / local self-government); 2) on the direct implementation of economic activities: the relations in the field of agricultural innovations, production, processing, logistics and sales of agricultural products; 3) on the field of activity: internal and external; 4) on the nature of the relationship: property, organizational, organizational and property; 5) on the production system: production (basic) legal relations of agrobusiness, derivative (secondary) legal relations of agrobusiness
