Article 87. Compensation of Losses of Agricultural and Forestry Produce
Losses of agricultural and forestry production caused by the acquisition of agricultural and forestry land, including agricultural land owned and used by physical persons, for the use thereof for purposes not connected with agricultural and forestry activities, causing the limitation of the rights of landowners, land users, and land lessees or the deterioration of land quality as a result of the effects of activities of enterprises, institutions, and organizations shall be subject to compensation, apart from compensation of damages provided for by Article 86 of this Code.
Losses of agricultural and forestry production shall be subject to compensation to physical and legal persons:

• 
  Who are exempted from agricultural and forestry land regulations because their needs are not related to agriculture or forestry; and
  
• 
  Whose facilities are being surrounded by sanitary and protection zones with restrictions on agricultural and forest use or re-evaluation as less valuable land.
  

Losses of agricultural and forestry production shall not be subject to compensation if:

• 
  Land is acquired for the construction and servicing of individual housing;
  
• 
  Land is acquired for the construction of schools, boarding-schools, orphanages, preschool and healthcare establishments; and
  
• 
  Land was allocated for water management purposes and for the construction of irrigation and water related facilities.
  

Legislation may envisage other instances when physical and legal persons shall be exempt from compensation of losses of agricultural and forestry production.

The procedure for determining losses of agricultural and forestry production subject to compensation shall be established by the legislation.
