Agricultural land tenure

Agricultural land tenure refers to the legal arrangements and rights that define how individuals or groups access, use, and control land for farming purposes. It includes various arrangements like owning land outright, leasing from others, or sharing land through community agreements. These rights determine responsibilities and benefits, such as harvesting crops or passing land to future generations. Clear land tenure provides security for farmers, encouraging investment and sustainable use, while insecure tenure can lead to disputes or disinvestment. Overall, land tenure systems are essential for fair, productive, and sustainable agriculture.
