UK land price mid-league

By: Language: English Series: Farmland Market ; (67) Autumn 2007, 30-31(2)Publication details: 2007Subject(s): Summary: The range of EU land values is huge, ranging from €500/ha in Romania to almost €30 000/ha in the Netherlands. UK prices are below the median point of these values despite the current boom. In order to safeguard healthy functioning of their property markets, recent accession countries are protected by preventing non-nationals from acquiring land during their accession period. The size and structure of agricultural land in EU countries also varies widely. Volatility is reported in Ireland and Denmark, due to economic and cultural shifts. By contrast, land values in Sweden and Finland have steadily increased post-accession.
