A reason is required to make a purchase offer. You cannot apply for a purchase other than the following reasons (reason for building a building, etc.).

• After 30 years have passed since it was designated as a production green space (it must not be designated as a specific production green space)

• When purchase offer is made for the mayor, city considers purchase, but, when cities do not buy, we perform mediation to other farmers.
• If mediation is not established within three months from the date of application and ownership is not transferred, the restrictions on development activities will be lifted and diverted to non-farm land will be possible.
