Abstract

This research paper is intended to be a contribution to the conceptual elucidation of an  institution whose structure of analysis has led to a permanent doctrinal debate, and this due to  its complex hermeneutics and its changing configuration due to the vicissitudes of social reality,  economic and political determined for the time being historical of sanction of the juridical  norms, I refer to the public order. It postulates the desirability of sustaining an "agrarian public  order," without further additions, surpassing the traditional concept of economic public order,  as legal protection for the economically weaker party (tenant, sharecropper) and the need for  protection of agricultural productive activity.  It seeks an expansion of the concept of public order to various agricultural contracts, including agro-industrial contracts, as well as its indissoluble reference to the other institutes of  agricultural law. Finally, reference will be made to the importance of subjecting agricultural  activity to the values of environmental public order.
