Abstract
The paper analyzes the development of the legislation of cooperative law since the late 1940s. It
points out the positives, but also the negatives in the development of agricultural cooperative in Slovakia.
The number of cooperatives, as well as the area of their farmed land decreased significantly after 1989
and the number of legal entities operating on the land has expanded. In spite of this, however, according
to the collected data, it can be stated that in 2018, cooperatives managed 34, 25% of agricultural land in
Slovakia. Based on the available statistical data on the development of the structure of agricultural cooperatives
and on the basis of legal analysis of the legislation, the authors wish to emphasize the merits of the
cooperative form of business as well as the advantages of the cooperatives as a separate form of business
under current market conditions. The cooperative, as a separated form of business, is still advantageous
for all areas of business including the agricultural business. The advantage of a cooperative form of business
is highlighted by its flexibility, relatively simple and more liberal than other legal form of business.
Key words
cooperative, legal form, legal relations, development of legislation, agriculture.
