This report is a product of a partnership between Terra Firma and the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED), contributing to a study of changing land access in sub-Saharan Africa supported by the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD).

The research team would like to express its gratitude to IIED for its support, collaboration in project design, and its insightful comments and suggestions in the analysis. In particular, the authors would like to thank Laura Silici and James Mayers, who reviewed drafts of this report. We also want to thank the field researchers Eusébio Xerinda and Constantino Cumbane for their work in Belo Horizonte and Lower Limpopo Valley.

To our informants — especially the peasants of Belo Horizonte (Boane) and Chicumbane (Lower Limpopo Valley) — thank you for allowing us into your homes to hear your stories. We hope that our study can make a contribution to improving the lives of many other rural people and inform the process of decision making. To all those who took some time off from their busy schedules — particularly the director of Vetagro, Gil Nhantumbo, and Daniel Ozias Mate (Ministry of Agriculture) — we say thank you very much.

This research was funded by IFAD with some complementary funding from supporters of IIED’s strategic work: Danida (Denmark), Irish Aid and Sida (Sweden). However the views expressed by the authors in this report do not necessarily reflect the views of IFAD, Danida, Irish Aid, Sida, IIED or Terra Firma.
