   rootzone of most crops. On some agricultural lands, the natural drainage is sufficient

   to maintain high productivity. However, many others require improvements in surface

   and subsurface drainage in order to optimize land productivity, while maintaining the

   as well as for its relationships with the other countries in Europe and its internal

   political structures. Members of the EU must be democracies governed by the rule

   of law and which guarantee human rights. They must have functioning market

    FAO’s Land Tenure Notes provide information on

    land tenure in a format that can be used by grassroots

    organizations which work with small farmers

    and others in rural communities. Improving secure

    access to land by the rural poor is essential in order

    to reduce poverty and hunger and to promote sustainable

    rural development. Improving people’s

    knowledge of their rights to land is an important

    part of making rights real, thereby allowing people

    to improve their livelihoods.
