    Moldova, Europe, Central Asia

    The agricultural and food production sector plays a key role in fighting poverty and food insecurity in Moldova, but is facing critical challenges to modernize and integrate into the international market. This paper focuses on smallholder farms, which make up 95 percent of all farms, and explores their potential for growth and the poverty links. Findings reveal that structural change is slow and smallholder farm growth in Moldova is an exception, not the rule.

    Turkmenistan

    Turkmenistan's unique approach to
    land reform and farm restructuring has produced a
    significant shift to individual or household-based farming,
    with more than three-quarters of the arable land leased to
    individual households or small groups. Most leaseholders
    consider this land to be rightfully theirs, and they expect
    to keep it in the future, either as private owners, or
    through extension of their leasehold. However, individual

    Tajikistan

    Agriculture sector growth has made a
    powerful contribution to post-war economic recovery in
    Tajikistan, accounting for approximately one third of
    overall economic growth from 1998 to 2004. Sector output
    increased by 65 percent in real terms during this period,
    and has now returned to the level extant at independence in
    1990. Total Factor Productivity (TFP) has also increased, by
    3 percent per year. Despite this progress, there is

    Tajikistan

    The Tajik government in its Poverty
    Reduction Strategy Paper for 2010-12 set an ambitious target
    of doubling Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in a decade.
    Tajikistan clearly has the potential to grow at more than
    seven percent a year as it has done in the recent past, but
    it is not going to be easy. The potential for
    'catch-up' growth from the depths of the recession
    of the 1990s is largely exhausted, the external environment
