Land tenure issues are frequently ignored in rural development interventions, with often long-lasting, negative results. This guide is designed to assist technical officers in governments and civil society in understanding why and how land tenure issues should be considered in rural development projects. It analyses important contexts such as environmental degradation, gender discrimination, and conflicts, where land tenure is currently of critical concern.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improving the productivity of agriculture is a key development objective across many low-income countries. One proposed method of increasing agricultural investment, and hence agricultural productivity, is by expanding formal land tenure systems in developing countries. Using data from a survey of households in rural Uganda, this study analyzes the effect of formal tenure rights on short and long term agricultural investment. The analysis finds that customary, or traditional, tenure is associated with lower levels of investment in inorganic fertilizer and in soil and water conservation. Customary tenure is associated with higher adoption of agroforestry practices however, possibly suggesting those with weak land rights use agroforestry to solidify their land claims. The analysis suggests governments should work to provide formal tenure status to households. However, a wide range of factors influence household decisions to invest in agriculture, suggesting that governments should implement formal tenure systems in tandem with improvements to institutional capacity, broader credit access, and expansion of agricultural extension programs.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The theorized impact of land tenure and titling on access to credit has produced mixed results in the empirical literature. Land tenure and titling is hypothesized to increase access to credit because of the enhanced land security provided and the newfound ability to use land as collateral. Using land as collateral and obtaining access to credit are paramount concerns in Uganda and in all of Africa, as greater emphasis is placed on the need to modernize the agricultural system. This paper uses a new approach in evaluating whether land tenure and titling have an impact on access to credit for rural households in Uganda. The new approach includes comparisons across four categories: (1) households who have customary land with versus without a customary certificate, (2) households who have freehold land with versus without a title, (3) households with a title or certificate having freehold versus customary tenure, and (4) households without a title or certificate having freehold versus customary tenure. Each comparison is then evaluated for the impact on access to any form of credit, formal credit, and informal credit. This analysis allows for an in-depth look into which element, tenure or title, is impacting access to credit and to which type of credit, formal or informal. To conduct this analysis, matching techniques are used, including propensity score matching and the Abadie and Imbens matching method. These two methods contain both strengths and weaknesses that allow the results to support to one another. The only significant finding of the matching was a positive impact on access to credit of freehold without title over customary without certificate. Results imply that tenure, not title, impacts credit access for rural households in Uganda."--Authors' abstract.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Mixed evidence on the impact of formal title in much of Africa is often used to question the relevance of dealing with land policy issues in this continent. The authors use data from Uganda to assess the impact of a disaggregated set of rights on investment, productivity, and land values, and to test the hypothesis that individuals' lack of knowledge of the new law reduces their tenure security. Results point toward strong and positive effects of greater tenure security and transferability. Use of exogenous knowledge of its provisions as a proxy for the value of the land law suggests that this piece of legislation had major economic benefits that remain to be fully realized.
