Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the transfer of agricultural parcels between two separate companies controlled by the same shareholder is an acquisition requiring authorization under the LDFR.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The transaction was a transfer of ownership and therefore an acquisition subject to authorization; no exception under Art. 62 LDFR applied.
Extrahierte Begründung
The companies are legally distinct, so the planned sale was an ownership transfer in the real-rights sense. Economic identity of the shareholder structures did not remove the transaction from Art. 61 LDFR.
