Percentage of land holdings owing land

The indicator measures the percentage of land holdings owing land in Lao. Given that one holding can hold and rent different parcels at the same time, the sum of the percentage of land holding owing land and land holdings renting land does not necessarily sum up to 100. The data comes from the Lao Census of Agriculture 1998/99 and 2010/11. The Lao Census of Agriculture 2010/11 was the second agricultural census undertaken in the Lao PDR. Since the first in 1998/99, the agricultural sector underwent significant changes. This Census of Agriculture was implemented by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry - MAF (http://www.maf.gov.la/), with support from the Lao Bureau of Statistics (LSB), and collected basic information on crop and livestock production from every household in the Lao PDR. Concerning data from the 2010/11 Census, the number of households is taken from full census component, whilst the number of farm households and the number of land holdings are taken from the specific sample component. Data are expressed as a percentage of the total number of land holdings. Data are available on the Laodecide platform (http://www.decide.la/en/).Data in percentage.
