Abstract:

Land parcels fragmentation problem in different agriclimatic zones of Ukraine is reviewed; general pattern, as well as regional specific is outlined. Land management of fragmented parcels in agricultural use is discussed, including land ownership and jurisprudence issues of land consolidation. Three key plots were chosen to analyze issues of land fragmentation, geospatial data shown demonstrate need for land consolidation to optimize agricultural land-use of such territories. Specificity fragmentation of land for agricultural companies, located in the mountainous regions of Ukraine, is noted. Gaps in the legal regulation of relation connected with land fragmentation were disclosed. Problems of land inheritance in the context of fragmentation, exchange of land resources as a tool for effective functioning of land market, the small and medium producers, economic development and agriculture in general; the creation of a land bank is regarded as a factor in reducing fragmentation of land were examined.

Abstract:

Agricultural land represents a country’s natural heritage. Therefore, land protection is an issue that is the subject of various legislative measures, also including those that affect land fragmentation. Land fragmentation is a problem that hinders the effective use of land. In 1995, Slovak lawmakers adopted Law 180/1995 Coll., which prevents the fragmentation of land under a minimum size. The aim of this paper was to determine whether Slovak legislation concerning land fragmentation is effective and prevents this phenomenon. We compare the Slovak legislation with the legislations of other countries, and, further, we describe the existing situation with respect to land fragmentation in the individual regions of the country according to the requirements of Slovak legal regulations. The results include proposals for the potential amendment of the legal regulation to ensure the effective prevention of land fragmentation.

Abstract:

The use of land consolidation on customary lands has been limited, though land fragmentation persists. Land fragmentation on customary lands has two main causes—the nature of the customary land tenure system, and the somewhat linked agricultural system. Since attempts to increase food productivity on customary lands have involved fertilisation and mechanisation on the small and scattered farmlands, these approaches have fallen short of increasing food productivity. A study to develop a responsible approach to land consolidation on customary lands using a design research approach is undertaken and reported here. Based on a comparative study, it is found that three factors inhibit the development of a responsible land consolidation approach on customary lands—the coverage of a land administration system, a land valuation approach, and a land reallocation approach the fits the customary land tenure system. To fill these gaps, firstly, this study developed the participatory land administration that brought together traditional land administration approaches with emerging bottom-up approaches, as well as technological advances that drive these approaches together with the growing societal needs. Secondly, a valuation approach was developed to enable the comparison of the farmlands in rural areas that are without land markets. Finally, a land reallocation approach was developed based on the political, economic and social, as well as technical and legal characteristics of rural customary farmlands. This study concludes that though the land consolidation strategy developed is significantly able to reduce land fragmentation, both physical and land tenure, the local customs are an obstruction to the technical processes to achieve the best form of farmland structures.

Abstract:

Most policies designed to reduce land fragmentation involve land consolidation. However, research examining the relationship between agricultural zoning and land fragmentation has not yet been explored. This paper considers the causal impact of an anti-land fragmentation policy on farmland use and farm production inputs relevant to environmental quality using a population-based census survey of farm households in Taiwan. Using the regression discontinuity method, we found that the anti-land fragmentation policy reduced the proportion of farmland used in farm production and environmental conservation by 2.4% and 2.6%, respectively. The policy also impacted the proportion of farmland using fertilizers, irrigation systems, and underground water. Our results show that anti-land fragmentation policies must be carefully designed to avoid negatively impacting farmland use and the environment.

Abstract:

Land consolidation (LC) is an effective program for land ownership defragmentation. The main objectives of this study are: (i) to analyse the characteristics of 487 study areas before and after implementation of the LC; (ii) to evaluate these study areas according to the influence of historical, environmental and socio-economic driving forces on the pre-LC ownership pattern, on the consolidation effect and on the financial costs of the LC projects. In average, the plot size has been increased twofold and the plot shape has also achieved an evidently positive change, but the average owner still has a holding of 2.72 ha divided into more than three plots after the LC. Historical factors were found to be the key driving forces for the pre-LC fragmentation, while socio-economic drivers play the major role for the LC effect and in the formation of the LC project costs. In contrast, the effect of natural factors is considered to be the least significant of all.

Abstract:

This study was conducted to assess the validity of land fragmentation and rural sustainability assessment scale (LFRSS). To achieve the purpose a cross-sectional survey design was adopted with a sample of 40 selected from local governments in Yobe State Nigeria. The instruments contained 71 items spread among the 3 constructs of land fragmentation, causes of land fragmentation and rural sustainability. The data collected was entered into Microsoft Excel 2016 and SPSS 25 was used for the Analysis. The scale was evaluated through content validity with experts and Reliability with Cronbach’s Alpha technique. The results indicated that, the scale has substantial content validity and acceptable reliability values of 0.77 (land fragmentation), 0.74 (causes of land fragmentation) and 0.75 (rural sustainability). However,8 items on the overall failed to satisfied the condition to be certified as valid and thus, entirely removed form the scale (4 in causes of land fragmentation and 4 in rural sustainability). Accordingly, with the satisfaction of measurement requirements by 63 items, it can be concluded that, the developed LFRSS validated in this study can be used to assess the extent of land fragmentation and rural sustainability in Yobe state Nigeria.

Abstract:

According to the USDA, Texas leads all other states in the loss of rural farming and ranching land. Most research on rural land value has been associated with trying to explain price per acre movements, yet few studies have analyzed the relationship of market factors such as size on the total purchase price. This research focused on the parcel size and price per acre relationship that exists for Texas rural lands. The objective of this research was to examine the relationship between size and price per acre of land parcels sold in Texas and to analyze the presence of fragmentation of agricultural lands. Data on Texas land sales of parcels greater than ten acres from 1965-2004 were used. The relationship between price per acre and parcel size was analyzed for Texas as a whole and for eight separate farmland regions. Each region was analyzed over eight time periods to test for changes in the land market for different periods. The results indicated a statistically significant inverse relationship between price per acre and parcel size which held in all eight regions and each of the eight five-year time periods. Personal income of the buyers had a greater influence on price per acre than net farm income. Fragmentation was verified by comparing percent of sales in eight categories of acres sold, ranging from 10 acres to over 1,280 acres. Over the time period 1966-2004, the percent of sales for smaller parcels, 21-40 acres, increased and for moderate size parcels, 81-320 acres, the percent of sales decreased. The increase in percent of sales for smaller parcels and the conversion of moderate size parcels of 81-320 acres into less than forty acre parcels, suggests that fragmentation has occurred. Furthermore, the percent of sales for parcels larger than 320 acres increased over the time period which mitigated the effects of fragmentation.

Abstract:

Land use change is one of the greatest threats to biodiversity. Land-use change often results in fragmentation of the landscape, yet this aspect is rarely taken into account in models of how land use affects biodiversity. Additionally, previous biodiversity models have been restricted to large spatial scales, which may not be applicable for conservation practitioners. In this thesis I analyse datasets collated from multiple published studies of how local terrestrial biodiversity responds to human impacts. I start Chapter 2) by modelling how land use, specifically secondary vegetation and plantation forests, impacts tropical biodiversity. My results show that the biodiversity in each continent does respond differently to land use, an aspect that previous studies have not investigated. This difference is most likely due to the nature of the land use being different in each continent. In this first analysis, as is often the case, drivers of biodiversity change were focused on site-level environment, such as land use. Therefore, in Chapter 3 I investigate how the area of habitat surrounding a sampled area might influence the number and abundance of species within the sample. Theory suggests that within-sample species richness would increase with fragment area with an exponent between 0.07 and 0.20, which was found to be the case. Chapter 4 builds on the previous chapters in two ways. Firstly, it applies the previously used methods to create a biodiversity model of habitat change for a smaller area to inform decision making. Secondly, it specifically takes into account how local biodiversity responds to changes in fragment area. I estimated that the planned changes to the small urban area would result in a gain in overall biodiversity, most likely due to an increase is size and number of high diversity habitats. To consider these results at a landscape scale, my final chapter (Chapter 5) investigates how the wider context around a sampled site influences local biodiversity. By studying the impact on biodiversity across this range of spatial scales, I can ascertain the importance of taking these variables into account and determine the implications of my results for previous models of biodiversity. I found that landscape fragmentation, as well as local land use, was a necessary component of models of local biodiversity, and its inclusion greatly improved previous biodiversity models.

Abstract:

In the context of democratisation in the early 1990s, the governments in Central and East Europe (CEE) had to decide how to deal with property that had been confiscated under state socialism. Nationalised housing and collectivised land were to a varying extent returned to former owners and their heirs by means of restitution, as well as being distributed to other citizens who were in possession of the users’ rights to such properties.

This thesis examines the spatial impacts, in terms of ownership patterns, of the way the redistribution of nationalised housing and collectivised land has been dealt with politically and at the local level in post-socialist Romania. It also locates the Romanian property reforms in relation to those of the rest of CEE. The impact of political directives on the property redistribution is analysed in relation to both structural influences, such as democratisation and antecedent property regimes, and implementation patterns in varied place-contexts. The thesis demonstrates that restitution was stifled due to disagreements between leftist and rightist political blocs, with the latter arguing for restitution whilst their opponents wrote the first restitution laws. A re-privatisation law allowed for the public sale of nationalised housing to tenants and thereby blocked the implementation of a restitution law, thus constituting a dilemma for constitutional democracy. In liberal place-contexts in West Romania, these obstacles to housing restitution were in part avoided. By contrast, land restitution was most widespread in the east, a stronghold of the left. This was because the legislation gives priority to restitution in areas of this kind, where smaller land-holdings dominated prior to 1945. The left-wing government pursued an electoral strategy of distributing small properties to a large number of citizens, and to current users in particular. This resulted in a fragmentation of historical property.

Abstract:

This study examines the relationship between land fragmentation and agricultural productivity in Vietnam, as well as the outcomes of land consolidation programs on productivity. Data from the Vietnam Household Living Standard Survey 2004 and data on the land consolidation process was used for the regression analysis. The results show weak correlations between fragmentation and productivity. Land fragmentation seems to be positively correlated to productivity due to more use of fertilizers and labour input. The communes that have consolidated their land are more productive, but this seems to be explained by initial differences in productivity. Our results suggest that there are no immidiate gains in land consolidation.

Abstract:

Land fragmentation can define as the “situation where one area/unit is composed of a large number of parcels that are too small for their rational utilization” [5]. Land fragmentation affects sustainable development through its multiple impacts on environmental, economic, and social costs [13]. Effective land use management and policy decisions are always based on understanding, modeling, and predicting land-use changes in cities [9]. Therefore, the land fragmentation process should systematically investigate to provide a wide-ranging set of land use indicators to support sustainable development [12]. Built-up land fragmentation is the fragmentation or division of the built-up plots or units within the built-up land-use area horizontally. The objective of this study is to frame a Decision Tree (DT) model to identify the non-linear relationships between the Level of Built-up Land Fragmentation (LBLF) and its influencing factors in urban areas. The sub-objective is to quantify the LBLF in the Western Province, Sri Lanka. The study scope limits to LBLF and Decision Tree (DT) non-linear classifier. The study further quantifies the LBLF from 2000 to 2010 in Western Province, Sri Lanka as an initiation to frame the DT model.

Abstract:

In the situation where Poland has been a member of the European Union since 2004, agricultural land consolidation has been co-financed with EU funds. This has resulted in an increase in the number of carried out land consolidations throughout Poland. Co-financing of this consolidation work has also introduced the need for a different understanding of the essence of agricultural land consolidation. According to Dacko (see Dacko 2006), the main goal of land consolidation should be to improve the quality of rural life, and not only to increase agricultural production. Land consolidation measures should be initiated to revive the countryside by encouraging continuous economic and political development of the local community, while protecting and rationally managing natural resources. The local community should participate democratically in land consolidation and in defining new forms of land use that make the most of the local potential. Currently in Poland, the choice of a location for the implementation of consolidation work not only depends on the farm land layout and land fragmentation also on the farmers who apply for the implementation of consolidation work in the particular area. Social acceptance is the key prerequisite for successful land consolidation. This fact has resulted in the agricultural land consolidation taking place not only in the areas in which the needs determined on the basis of the farm land layout and land fragmentation are most unfavorable. The paper comparatively analyses the determined needs as regards consolidation work in Poland, and the implementation of this work since 2004. The research employed the following methods: analysis and synthesis of the literature, field inventory, and research from the group of spatial-statistical approaches. The study area covered Poland, and in particular the selected region.

Abstract:

The aim of this paper was to analyze the degree of fragmentation of the checkerboard of land ownership to determine a priority ranking of areas intended for land consolidation in the commune of Białaczów, the Łódz Province (Voivodeship). For a village to be qualified for land consolidation, according to the Act of 26 March 1982 on the Consolidation and Exchange of Land (Official Journal of Laws of 2003, no 178, item 1749, as amended), more than 50% of land owner signatures have to be obtained. On the other hand, the guiding principle for the qualification of a village for a land merger, within the framework of a consolidation program, is that the highest percentage of owners accede to the program. A common obstacle to collecting signatures from landowners is that some of them live outside the village concerned (non-resident owners). The aim of this article was to identify those villages in which land consolidation was an urgent priority.

Abstract:

Fish communities are an important component of aquatic systems and are good bioindicators of ecosystem health. Land use changes in the Midwest have caused sedimentation, erosion, and nutrient loading that degrades and fragments habitat and impairs water quality. Because most small wadeable streams in the Heartland Inventory and Monitoring Network (HTLN) have a relatively small area of their watersheds located within park boundaries, these streams are at risk of degradation due to adjacent land use practices and other anthropogenic disturbances. Shifts in the physical and chemical properties of aquatic systems have a dramatic effect on the biotic community. The federally endangered Topeka shiner (Notropis topeka) and other native fishes have declined in population size due to habitat degradation and fragmentation in Midwest streams. By protecting portions of streams on publicly owned lands, national parks may offer refuges for threatened or endangered species and species of conservation concern, as well as other native species. This protocol describes the background, history, justification, methodology, data analysis and data management for long-term fish community monitoring of wadeable streams within nine HTLN parks: Effigy Mounds National Monument (EFMO), George Washington Carver National Monument (GWCA), Herbert Hoover National Historic Site (HEHO), Homestead National Monument of America (HOME), Hot Springs National Park (HOSP), Pea Ridge National Military Park (PERI), Pipestone National Monument (PIPE), Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve (TAPR), and Wilson's Creek national Battlefield (WICR). The objectives of this protocol are to determine the status and long-term trends in fish richness, diversity, abundance, and community composition in small wadeable streams within these nine parks and correlate the long-term community data to overall water quality and habitat condition (DeBacker et al. 2005).
