The model shows that ifthere are more sfp than eligible land, the capitalization ratio will not decline but rather increasedue to the inclusion of animal premiums in the sfp. We can confirm our theoretical results forcross-section data on land rental prices in Bavaria in 2005.

Land was initially a key part of classical economic theory, so why did it get pushed aside?

A second report for the World Bank’s Northern Uganda Recovery and Development Program – RDP. The objective is to inform policy processes on post-conflict land policy and administration on likely types of land conflicts and claims, their resolution, gaps in current land policy, resources needed. Survey suggests that Teso’s IDP displacement patterns are unique.
