The legal framework of arch lands exploitation in Algeria

الملخص EN

The modes of Arch (Tribe) lands exploitation in Algeria vary between new and old modes, and perhaps the most important of them is “The permanent usufruct” created according to the law N° 19_87, which is carried out by agricultural investor, but the disharmony between the members of investment and due to the difficulties of benefit sharing of loans and the debt accumulation, this mode of exploitation was cancelled and was replaced by the agricultural concession mode enshrinedin the law N° 10_03, that defines the conditions and modalities of agricultural lands exploitation, belonging to the private property of the state.

However, the process of implementation has faced many difficulties, especially for Arch lands that are exploited without constraints and without the possibility, to convert the right of usufruct to a concession right.
