Land fragmentation and land consolidation in the agricultural sector : a case study from Hungary
Biro, Szabolcs ... [et al.]
The aim of this study is to identify the economic and social consequences that follow a transformation process in agriculture and the effects it has on rural residential society. We focused our research on how the liberalisation of the previous, limited private ownership of arable lands as well as the methods of their privatisation, affected prudent land utilisation and the trends in residential incomes arising from agriculture. We also analysed the consequences of the current extreme subdivision (or fragmentation) of ownership, the ways of handling this situation, and the methods used to aid prudent land consolidation.
