From 40 thousand to half a million. Fines issued for violation of the fertile layer

The fertile soil layer has been restored for several centuries, so the fines for this violation are large.

The problem is a business on trading a fertile layer of land

The rightholders of agricultural plots in the Moscow region will pay fines for breaking the fertile soil layer on their lands. By law, the fertile layer must be handled very carefully, its restoration takes hundreds of years. The administrative code strictly forbids removing it, but every year inspectors reveal this violation: many owners of agricultural land ruthlessly rip off the fertile layer from the soil in order to sell it. This, by the way, will be a very dubious purchase - the quality of such land always leaves much to be desired, the content of nutrients in it may be low, but acidity often exceeds the norm, as well as the content of unwanted chemicals and pathogenic microorganisms.

The traditional solution is to fine

Fines by the Administrative Code in the amount of 3,000 to 80,000 rubles are provided not only for unauthorized withdrawal and transfer fertile soil layer on agricultural land, but also for damage to the land with pesticides and agrochemicals, industrial waste and consumption, etc. The activities of legal entities and individual entrepreneurs for this can be suspended for three months.

Over the past week in the Moscow region, almost 800 thousand fines were collected for these violations. In the Dmitrovsky district, there are two copyright holders of the land plot (individuals) for the amount of 40,000 rubles each. The area of ​​their plots is 4.7 hectares and 9.5 hectares. The copyright holder of 24.4 hectares - a legal entity - was fined half a million rubles.

The same story is in the Klin urban district. There, 10 people were fined, all of them are individuals, the total area of ​​their plots is more than 174 hectares. The total amount of the fine is 166 thousand rubles. And also the owner of the site in Pavlovsky Posad was fined 40 thousand: he arbitrarily removed and moved to another place the fertile soil layer.

The fertile soil layer tends to be depleted, which is why modern horticulture attaches great importance to the careful handling of the soil, the technologies of its restoration and enrichment.
