Land tenure structure of the Bakel small irrigated perimeters : baseline survey report -- part 1

It presents a summary of tenure arrangements on each perimeter, and a narrative description of the specific problems and issues of land access and allocation which each village has experienced. The report also asks general questions about the future of irrigation, and addresses some of the issues (persistence of traditional inter-caste obligations, land acquisition problems, impact of the Law on the National Domain, privatization, and access to credit) which have constrained and may continue to constrain irrigation in Bakel.
