Book Legal knowladge and economic development  The case of land rights in Uganda

Download or read book Legal knowladge and economic development The case of land rights in Uganda written by Klaus W. Deininger and published by World Bank Publications. 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.

Book Sustainable Agricultural Development

Download or read book Sustainable Agricultural Development written by Mohamed Behnassi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-02-09 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to many challenges (i.e. climate change, energy, water and land shortage, high demands on food, land grabbing, etc.), agriculture production potential is expected to be seriously affected; thus, increasing food insecurity and hunger in many already affected regions (especially in Africa). In this context, sustainable agriculture is highly recommended as an eco-system approach where soil, water, plants, environment and living organisms live in harmony. Innovative technologies and research should be developed to ensure sustainable agriculture and productivity using modern irrigation systems, improved varieties, improved soil quality, etc. In the meantime, the preservation of natural environment should be based on resource conservation technologies and best management practices. Sustainable Agricultural Development, not only raises the serious ethical and social issues underlying these huge environmental problems, but also aims at presenting successful experiences from all over the world in relation with sustainable farming, sustainable management of water and land resources, and innovative processes in livestock production. It also aims at providing inputs to decision making processes and encouraging the transfer of relevant know-how, technologies and expertise to different countries where similar agro-climatic conditions may exist; thus saving precious resources and promoting sustainable agricultural development as a relevant approach to tackle the food security challenge. Finally, this book focuses on the paradigmatic and policy dimensions and call for an innovative approach by analyzing the key themes in a complex and interrelated manner.

Book Land Tenure  Agricultural Investment  and Sustainable Land Management  A Ugandan Case Study

Download or read book Land Tenure Agricultural Investment and Sustainable Land Management A Ugandan Case Study written by Christopher Schreck and published by . 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.
