In this paper, we test the hypothesis that land held under varying configurations of property rights will be farmed at different levels of production efficiency. Production data were collected from 477 plots in a fairly productive, mixed farming system in the Ethiopian highlands. Interspatial mea...

Measuring the production efficiency of alternative land tenure contracts in a mixed crop-livestock system in Ethiopia
Although the question of relative production efficiency of indigenous land rights is central to a discussion of land reform in sub-Saharan Africa, there is relatively little rigorous empirical research because of a lack of adequate disaggregated data with the exception of few studies, the subject...

Measuring the production efficiency of alternative land tenure contracts in a mixed crop-livestock system in Ethiopia
The demand for livestock products in sub-Saharan Africa is increasing steadily. This demand is driven by human population, rural-urban demographic shifts and income growth. In sub-Saharan Africa, population is expected to increase from the present 500 million to nearly 1300 million in 2025. Urban...
