Descripción
This legal brief on land consolidation is based on the guidance contained in the Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land, Fisheries and Forests in the context of national Food Security (VGGT). The brief summarizes the FAO Legal Guide on Land Consolidation: Based on regulatory practices in Europe, as well as relevant FAO and international experiences. It explains the concept of land consolidation, provides relevant policy recommendations and in particular, the necessary legal and regulatory framework for efficient land consolidation programmes.
Land consolidation allows for the improvement of the structure of agricultural holdings and farms, which increases their economic and social efficiency and brings benefits both to right holders as well as to society in general. It may also facilitate the allocation of new areas with specific purposes other than agriculture, such as for public infrastructure or nature protection and restoration.
