Dolynska M. Main stages of establishment of farms in independent Ukraine

Purpose.

Methodology. The methodology covers a comprehensive analysis and generalization of available scientific and theoretical material and the formation of relevant conclusions and recommendations. The following methods of scientific cognition were used during the research: comparative-legal, logical-semantic, functional, system-structural, and logical-normative. Results. In the course of the research, the historical and legal analysis of the legal status of the most common types of agribusiness entities such as peasant farms, family farms of independent Ukraine is carried out. Scientific novelty. Having analyzed the development of farming in Ukraine during 1991-2021, five main stages of the development of farming in independent Ukraine are determined.

Members of one family who have established a farm in the form of a family farm based on registration of a natural person-entrepreneur are co-entrepreneurs of the above-mentioned family farm.Practical significance. The results of the research can be used in lawmaking and law enforcement during the preparation of normative and legislative acts on the legal regulation of farming.
