The Federal Government of Germany has presented a bill of reorganize the social security system for farmers, i.e. the old-age insurance, and to introduce this system in the new federal states. This article deals with the prospective impacts of this plan on social security matters of the additionally insured persons in the new federal states, and with the financial and distributive effects of the reform. The analysis shows that this way of transferring the (reformed) system cannot be expected to be a successful solution in all parts. The only way to avoid disparities, other conflicts and problems of incompatibility is to separate agricultural policy from social security policy and to reform the farmers' pension system by following the principles of the general system of old-age insurance in Germany.
