    Investment in agriculture is widely recognized as crucial for economic growth, poverty reduction and improved food and nutrition security. Although several estimates have been made of how much investment is needed in agriculture to achieve production or food security goals, no source to date has attempted to estimate the total amount of public and private investment that is actually made in agriculture. This paper does so using the most up to date and comprehensive international datasets available.

    Kenya, Philippines

    This paper analyzes the adoption behavior of smallholder farmers using comparable plot-level duration data for Kenya and The Philippines. We find that adoption behavior is strongly linked to the process of land ownership transfer. This relationship is found both for data from Kenya and The Philippines and is robust to the inclusion of observed and unobserved village, household, plot, and time factors.

    Amérique du Sud, Brésil
    A recente "corrida mundial por terras" transformou a América Latina, em geral, e o Brasil, em particular, em alvos preferenciais para negócios com aumento considerável de investimentos estrangeiros no setor agropecuário, inclusive na compra de terras, com a participação de empresas do setor financeiro. Mesmo sendo um mercado de baixa liquidez, negócios com terras não são novidade no Brasil, mas têm aumentado consideravelmente após 2002, sendo, inclusive, possível perceber esse processo no sistema de cadastro do Instituto Nacionalde Colonização e Reforma Agrária (Incra).

Using a panel data from a series of surveys (1990, 2000, and 2006), the economic impacts of the Program were evaluated.

    Afrique
    Na primeira década do século XXI, em todo o mundo foram adquiridos, por estrangeiros, 203 milhões de ha de terras, sendo 134 milhões localizados na África. Esta “corrida às terras”, promovida por países desenvolvidos ou em desenvolvimento, entre os quais o Brasil, é caracterizada por investimento agrícola e aquisição de terras para satisfazer basicamente demandas alimentares ou energéticas. Das terras adquiridas, 78% foram direcionadas para atividades agrícolas.

    Laos, Thaïlande

    This article seeks to draw connections between a political ecology of global investment in resource sector development and a culturally informed understanding of rural out-migration across the Lao–Thai border. The author highlights how the departures of rural youth for wage labor in Thailand and the remittances they return to sending villages are becoming important for understanding agrarian transformations in Laos today. In the first section the author introduces the contemporary context of cross-border migrations across the Lao–Thai Mekong border.

    Thaïlande

    This paper uses data collected in Thailand among permanent rural-urban migrants to analyse the motivations in land temporary transfers such as free loans or rentals. Land transfers are here looked at in a continuum and categorized according to three characteristics: the nature of the relationship between the parties of the exchange, the monetary nature of the payment as well as its explicit or imlicit nature. This methodology allows a richer typology than traditionnally used in empiric literature, and distinguishes between various loans that are not always free.
