One of the striking features of transition from plan to market in CIS agriculture is the
dramatic shift from the predominance of large corporate farms (kolkhozy and sovkhozy,
generally referred to as agricultural enterprises) to individual or family agriculture based on a
spectrum of small farms. The individual sector, combining the traditional household plots and
the new peasant farms that began to emerge after 1992, accounts for most of agricultural
production and controls a large share of arable land. This is a dramatic change from the pre-

Many countries of the Asia-Pacific region share long land borders across which many consignments of plants, plant products and other regulated articles pass through land border entry points. While long-distance trade in large consignments exists and uses the established regulatory systems, a large proportion of cross border trade concerns the local trade of large numbers of small consignments which require specific border region import regulatory systems. Dealing with the trade of small amounts of plant material is a major problem at many land border entry points.

This paper discusses the role of FAO support to the Government of Mozambiques Land Commission since 1995, through three consecutive projects. While each has had a relatively short duration, all have been planned and implemented within a single conceptual framework with a much longer time horizon. This has allowed a difficult and complex issue to be progressively developed and nurtured within a realistic time scale, while building up a strong sense of national ownership of the process.

Over the past 30 years, the natural environment of the Asia-Pacific region has been subjected to increasing degradation of both land and water resources thereby threatening livelihoods, food security, people's health and long-term sustainable development. Pressures on these resources are more severe compared to other regions in the world. Some 850 million hectares, representing more that 28 percent of the region's land area, are affected by some form of land degradation.

This paper addresses the impacts of climate change in Mongolia asking what legal instruments can help to assure the adaptation of pastoralism - being the predominant economic activity and mode of life of the rural population - to the changing conditions. Leading to more frequent disasters, climate change makes pastoral adaptation necessary and disaster risk management a primary need.

The first detailed study of large scale land acquisitions in Africa analyses the modalities and likely impacts. The study highlights the possible opportunities (investments, rising agricultural productivity and rural incomes), if things are managed well and warns about the risks (uncompensated loss of land rights for the rural poor) if contracts are not properly negotiated and enforced. It makes recommendations to the main stakeholders to make this new trend useful for food security and rural development.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the economic effects of land reform policies in
Tajikistan on the country’s agricultural sector and rural households. There is a conspicuous
lack of evidence-based policy dialogue with the government on the effectiveness of land and
agricultural policies in Tajikistan. Though the majority of rural inhabitants live in poverty and
many are food insecure, a scientifically proper evaluation of the effects of land and farm
policy reforms has yet to be done. The present study is an attempt to fill this void by offering

The habitat of tsetse fly (Glossina spp.) depends upon climatic conditions, host
availability and land cover characteristics. In this paper, the Land Cover Classification
System (LCCS), developed by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the
United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), is proposed as a tool to harmonize
land cover mapping exercises carried out in the context of tsetse and trypanosomiasis
(T&T) research and control. Habitat modifications are
