A fully interactive two group model is used to examine the issue of resource allocation under alternative tenancy systems in Nepal. The results support the Marshallian hypothesis that both mixed and pure share tenants apply variable inputs less intensively in their rented-in plots than in owner operated plots.

The patchwork of government influences that shape the protection and management of construction mineral resources--sand, gravel, and crushed stone--includes statutes, regulations, guidance documents, and court decisions at the federal, state, and local level. Across the Washington-Baltimore metropolitan area, both these influences and the experiences that the counties have had in managing construction mineral resources range widely.

A theoretical model identified ranges of spatial variability required within multiple-land-class fields for economically viable variable rate technology (VRT) and the spatial variability required for maximum return to VRT. An example illustrated that return to VRT and the viable range of spatial variability increased for higher corn and nitrogen prices.

The objective of our study was to analyze the buying/selling prices of agricultural land in Slovakia in accordance with the deposited contracts in the Real Estate Cadastre during the years 2001-2008. Agricultural land sales, land areas and market prices are observed and evaluated under the size structure of the sold sites and their anticipated further utilization in the counties Dunajska Streda, Topolcany, Rimavska Sobota, Liptovsky Mikulas, Michalovce and Svidnik and for all observed counties as a whole.

It's became clear that Land is not only a basic factor of production, it also has a number of specific features. Against this background, it has long been recognized that clarifying property rights to land can enhance economic growth through a number of channels:

In order to ensure operation of the Cadastre, the Cadastre information system is being maintained and improved. Cadastre text and spatial data regarding cadastre objects, which are located in the territory of Latvia, are registered and maintained in the Cadastre information system. In order to specify the value of particular cadastre object, four models of cadastral assessment are developed. These models provide cadastral assessment of all cadastre objects registered in the Cadastre information system.

The amount of land in urban and other special uses increased more than 50 percent since the 1960s in the South. Rural land converted to urban uses is directly related to increases in population in the South. Urban land-use coefficients were estimated to provide a measure of the amount of land converted to urban uses per person added to the population base. These coefficients indicate that from 1974 to 1987 two-thirds to three fourths of an acre of land was converted to urban uses for each person added to the population base.

Cadastral map in modern market economy in different fields is marketable product. Summarized on it digital geospatial data, obtained in cadastral survey, can be widely used by many users. These data are captured using different methods of cadastral surveying therefore they have different accuracy. Land parcel boundaries are updated in compliance with data of higher accuracy. Wherewith, assessment and improvement of quality of cadastral map is very actually.

Nonagricultural factors impact land values to cause a divergence of discounted cash rents for agricultural land and land values. Focus is given to the portion of land values attributable to discounted cash rents. Unique characteristics for cropland and pasture lead to differences in capitalization rates. Nonagricultural factors are greatest for pasture.

The introduction in Ecuador of a primary irrigation infrastructure into a communal setting where land users did not fully control the land and had effectively no access to credit, produced a sell off of nearly all irrigable lands. The change in land reservation prices between buyers and sellers is analyzed.
