JOHN CARLOS I

KING OF SPAIN

To all who present it and understand

Sabed: That the General Courts have approved and I come to sanction the following law.

PREAMBLE

I

Spanish society has undergone a profound transformation over the last thirty years in the full recognition of equal rights and freedoms between women and men.

Despite this, gender equality in rural areas is evolving more slowly, which is a common feature of all countries in our environment. Proof of this is the majority presence of men in the rural world as a result of the migration of young women from the countryside to the cities. The long working days, the non-shared domestic responsibilities in most cases and the lack of economic, professional and social recognition of women's work are the main reasons for this phenomenon.

In the field of family exploitation of the rural environment, many women share with men the agricultural tasks, assuming much of the same and contributing both goods and work. However, in most cases, only the man as the holder of the agricultural holding is listed, which makes it difficult for the woman to be properly valued for the rights and obligations arising from the management of the holding, under conditions of equality. In Spain, more than 70 per cent of agricultural holding holders are male.

In Spain there are no legal limitations to access to agricultural property by women (although reality shows that when they are the headlines, it is usually a small and low-level farm. (a) profitability), but if practical difficulties for access to credit or other intangible assets and rights are linked not to land ownership, but to their performance, i.e. ownership of the holding. In addition, traditional stereotypes remain in force in rural areas. Women's work continues to be more understood as a "family aid" that complements the main income and not as an effective economic contribution.

The role of women in rural areas is present and future. The development of rural areas is essential for the vertebrate of Spain and has been understood by the European Union through Directive 41/2010 of 7 July. Rural women, still today despite progress on equality, remain vulnerable and invisible; and yet they are the basis for the maintenance, conservation and development of rural areas in economic, social and economic terms. cultural.

II

Despite the progress that the regulation of agricultural holdings has made for the legal regime of land organization in the rural world in accordance with Law 19/1995 of 4 July on the modernization of agricultural holdings, the practice shows that there are certain aspects that need to be corrected for the negative effect they produce on the situation of women living and participating in such holdings. Although there have been sufficient societarian figures in the civil and commercial legal system for some time, women have the same rights as men, making them stand on the market and in legal and economic traffic, without However, social reality shows that women working in agricultural holdings have not used such social figures. The State intends, with this legal initiative, to adapt the legal framework to social reality.

The shared ownership is called to constitute a factor for changing agricultural structures so that women in the rural world enjoy equal rights for men. This will allow for the removal of formal and substantive barriers, as well as the empowerment of certain values in women in the rural world, such as trust, equality and non-discrimination, visibility and therefore development. sustainable.

The Spanish legislator thus seeks to establish a legal framework for rural people, guaranteeing equal rights for women and men in the rural world, social protection and social security, of education and training, and full recognition of their work at all levels.

III

Two rules with the rank of Law constitute the first legal recognition of what is already known as the shared ownership of agricultural holdings. On the one hand, Article 30 of the Organic Law 3/2007 of 22 March on the effective equality of women and men, calling for the development of this legal figure, in order to fully recognize the rights of women in the agricultural sector, the corresponding protection of social security, and the recognition of their work. Moreover, the fourth additional provision of Law 45/2007, of 13 December, for the sustainable development of rural areas, has provided a mandate to the Government to promote and develop the system of shared ownership of goods, rights and obligations in the agricultural sector and the corresponding protection of social security.

As the first development of these rules, Royal Decree 297/2009 of 6 March on shared ownership in agricultural holdings created, for administrative purposes and as a measure of promotion, shared ownership as a new preferential figure for those covered by Law 19/1995 of 4 July 1995 for the modernisation of agricultural holdings.

In addition in Europe, work has also been done in this regard, as demonstrated by Directive 2010 /41/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 July on the application of the principle of equal treatment between men and women. exercise a stand-alone activity.

IV

Based on this background, this Law regulates the shared ownership of agricultural holdings. The Law provides for a new legal figure of a voluntary nature, which aims to promote this type of farming as a vehicle to achieve the true equalization of women and men in the agricultural holding, giving effective compliance with the principle of equality and non-discrimination proclaimed in the Constitution. Its aim is to go beyond a regulation of administrative effects, since it is a question of promoting positive action which will give women visibility and which women can exercise and enjoy all the rights arising from their work in the field of health. agricultural holdings in terms of equality with respect to men, favouring the assumption of managerial decisions and the risks and responsibilities arising from them. The figure set out in Article 2 as an economic unit, without legal personality, and liable to be imposed for tax purposes, which constitutes a marriage or a couple in fact, for the joint management of the agricultural holding, differentiating between the ownership of the holding and the Sunday ownership of the goods and their rights, the civil legal regime of which is not affected in any case. This law grants these agricultural holdings of shared ownership the status of priority, in accordance with Law 19/1995, of 4 July, of the modernization of agricultural holdings, so that they will enjoy the advantage of having a preferential order the collection of benefits, aid and other promotion measures promoted by the public authorities, provided that one of them is a professional farmer and the unit income of the holding does not exceed 50 per 100 the maximum as laid down in the relevant legislation for holdings priority.

The Law also regulates another mechanism for the recognition of the economic rights of women who perform tasks on the holding. Thus, those who have participated effectively and regularly receive no payment or consideration for the work done and have not been constituted with their spouse or partner in fact a shared ownership will be entitled to an economic compensation in the case of both the transmission of the holding and the extinction of the marriage or the couple in fact.

In addition to the above, there is the possibility, as stated in the additional first provision, of access to the joint administration of the agricultural holding, but without creating the legal status of the shared ownership, by setting up a limited liability company as provided for in Article 5.2 of Royal Decree-Law 13/2010 of 3 December 2010 on actions in the field of taxation, labour and liberalisation to promote investment and the job creation, the statutes of which will be in line with the type of Statets-approved by the Minister of Justice . It should be noted that the shared ownership regime set out in this Law does not apply to the limited liability companies referred to in this additional provision.

Consequently, the purpose of the Law is to promote and promote real and effective equality between women and men in the rural environment, through the legal and economic recognition derived from their participation in the activity. agricultural.

V

Finally, it should be noted that the Law introduces a regulation that, informed by the principle of basic equality among all Spaniards in the exercise of rights and in the fulfilment of constitutional duties, according to The wording of Article 149.1.1. of the Constitution, moreover, has a special and precise constitutional basis for the precepts that integrate it. Thus, the fourth final provision states that the competence of the State to issue the rule is, together with the title deriving from the principle of equality evoked, in the titles which it enables to produce basic legislation in (a) the basis for and coordination of the general planning of economic activity, in the field of civil legislation, without prejudice to the necessary specialisms which are derived from civil or special civil law in this field; commercial law, and in matters of general taxation and public debt and of basic legislation and arrangements Economic and Social Security.

Chapter III establishes the tax system and the social security measures applicable to this type of agricultural holding. Similarly, it regulates the measures relating to the scheme of agricultural aid and public aid and grants to encourage the establishment of the shared entitlements of agricultural holdings.
