Abstract: Information and communications technologies (ICT) are usually given attention primarily from the standpoint of the technical aspects. However the legal aspects of this specific area cannot be forgotten, as they significantly influence the efficacy and usefulness to entrepreneurial subjects i.e. the conditions for making business transactions. ICT are one of the factors that markedly influence agricultural primary production and the food industry as well as all other branches of the economy. Therefore it is necessary to analyse the effect Community legal regulations for electronic transactions have on resource utility. The aim of the paper is to analyse the state of the legal regulation of information and communication technologies in the food industry in the CR in comparison with Community law. Currently a basic overall source of law for the ICT area does not exist in the CR in an integral form. This branch of law is regulated complementarily in a whole number of varying legal regulations. With regards to the specifics of the media used in the ICT framework it is essential to resolve certain issues differently from the general regulations.The paper has resulted from the institutional research intention MSM 6046070906 "The Economics of Resources from Czech Agriculture and their Efficient Use in the Framework of Multifunctional Agri-food Systems".
