Legislator summary

AI generated

The Insurance Court dismissed the farmer's claim for a generational change allowance because the court found farming constituted at least half of their total income. The court calculated net income from farming and forestry, adjusted for personal use and timber sales, then split this amount to compare against external employment earnings. Consequently, the allowance was rejected since the statutory requirement regarding the proportion of income from farming was not met.

Maatilatalouden tuloja arvioitaessa otettiin huomioon maatilatalouden ja metsätalouden puhdas tulo, poistot, oma käyttö, puunmyynti ja suoritetut pinta-alalisät. Näin saatu tulo jaettiin, huomioon ottaen viljelijän tilan ulkopuolisen työskentelyn, puoleksi kummallekin. Täten arvioitua tuloa verrattiin tilan ulkopuolisesta työskentelystä saatujen ansiotulojen nettomäärään vuosittain. VI -jaosto
