Abstract
The notion that the formal titling and individualization of land rights in developingcountries lead to higher investments in land and agricultural productivity holds sway in academicand development circles. In this paper, this notion is analyzed based on a comparative study of landreform programs and their implications for access to land, credit, and agricultural investments inGhana, Kenya, and Vietnam. It focuses on how different access routes to land influence access tocredit, and the transaction costs of land reform programs for agricultural investments. The paperconcludes that in developing countries, the transaction costs of land reforms for investments cansignificantly increase if the influence of power is not addressed in order to reduce unequal accessto land. The practical implementation of land reform is influenced by many factors, including thecontrol on political power. Thus, measures must accompany implementation to check the use ofpower to derail land reform objectives. Moreover, the paper supports the argument that land reformsshould be implemented in their local contexts so as to have positive effects on agriculture.
