Findings show that exploitative agrarian labour practices continue despite the diversification of labour towards numerous farms and other enterprises.

    Is there an alternative model to small family farming that could provide sustainable livelihoods to millions of resource-constrained and often non-viable smallholders in developing countries?

    State Ownership of Land in Uzbekistan – an Impediment to Further Agricultural growth?
    Peer-reviewed publication
    December, 2016
    Uzbekistan

    The present paper aims to demonstrate how the state land ownership affects development of agricultural sector in Uzbekistan, and what are its strengths and weaknesses. It highlights the importance of secure land right regardless of ownership. Land in Uzbekistan is state-owned; the exclusive state ownership of land was first incorporated in the 1992 Constitution. The official rationale was to ensure food security and social stability; another concern was the state-run irrigation system, operation of which would be hampered in the event of land privatization.
