According to the legislation, one of the important issues is the use of land according to its purpose. That is, it is not allowed to build a private house or any object on the land intended for cultivation and to fence the area.
Unfortunately, sometimes this requirement of the legislation is seriously violated due to insufficient information of users and sometimes deliberately. As a result, both the efficiency and fertility of the land are impaired and the house or facility illegally built by the owner must be demolished.
However, the new amendment to the Land Code does not completely restrict construction work in agricultural areas.

“The total area of such land must be more than 3 hectares, and construction works may be carried out on a maximum of 5 percent of the total area of the land. Private residences, administrative buildings, hotels and other catering facilities. build on agricultural land in these conditions.
According to Article 247 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, persons who violate the above requirements and carry out construction works that do not comply with the legislation will be fined from 500 to 5,000 manat. Even depending on the severity of the violation of the law, according to article 188 of the Penal Code, a restriction of freedom of 3 to 5 years or a prison sentence of 2 to 5 years can be applied.
