This article examines the regulatory and institutional development of Uruguay’s National Institute of Colonization (INC) from its foundation in 1948 to the present. It analyzes the legal framework established by Law No. 11,029, along with subsequent changes such as those introduced by the Urgent Consideration Law No. 19,889 of 2020. Through a document-based review and an analysis of academic literature, the study explores the implications of INC's legal regime on land access, agrarian distribution, tenure models, and its role as a regulator of land value. Advantages, limitations, and tensions surrounding the social function of land, the state's preferential acquisition right, and new associative colonization models are discussed. The article concludes by emphasizing the strategic importance of the INC as a guarantor of a public-oriented agrarian policy, essential for the sustainability and equity of the Uruguayan rural environment.
