Land ownership and land mastery are two things that build rural structures in the community. In the peasant community, the Agrarian structure becomes the determinant of other aspects of life, such as agricultural production rate, income level as well as economic and other social factors. The importance of Agrarian structure in the peasant community makes researchers conduct a study aimed at analysing the typology of the Agrarian structure of transmigrant farmers in South Konawe Province of Southeast Sulawesi through a combination of ownership aspects and mastery aspects. This research used qualitative methods by taking one case, namely in the Transmigration Settlement Unit (UPT) Arongo in Southeast Sulawesi Province. The results showed that through the combination of aspects of land ownership and land mastery as a form of Agrarian structure, there are three typologies of Agrarian structure form in the UPT. Arongo, owning and mastering agricultural land, owning but not mastering land and not owning but mastering land. To achieve Agrarian transformation, the ideal typology of Agrarian structures for peasant communities is in the form of Agrarian structures in which people own land while mastering it so that land management is optimal.

AbstractThis article proposes a conceptual and methodological framework for analyzing agroecosystem resilience, which incorporates agrarian structure and peasant community agency. The methodology is applied to a comparison of two peasant communities in Latin America (Brazil and Colombia), emphasizing the capacity to transform unsustainable power structures in place of adapting to them. This application demonstrates that when agency is strongly developed, as in the case of Brazil, it is possible to transform structural conditions that restrict resilience. The inclusion and consideration of biophysical variables, management practices, agrarian structure and agency, through a participatory approach, allows for the identification of factors that inhibit or potentiate the resilience of agroecosystems.

<p>ABSTRACT<br />This study aim to analyze the deagrarianization phenomena occurring in peasant communities in rural Java. The research was done by explanative case study approach. The emic perspective is used to perform close reading through participation observation. Data is obtained through the collection and analysis of individual experiences (life history). Data analysis was done descriptively. The result shows that character as an agrarian village still survives. The villages still have peasants and active agriculture activity. Agriculture still in production. Nevertheless, the characteristic of agrarian community as the base of agrarian village, certainly experiencing a decay. Agrarian community are not peasants who cultivate their agricultural land, but they are ‘quasy peasants’ who hire other people to do it. The real deagrarianizaton threats come from within peasant community itself. Agriculture was stopped in the second generation. The third generation from community more attached to various non-agriculture activities that grows exclusively.<br />Keywords: quasi peasant, agriculture, deagrarianization, community</p><p><br />ABSTRAK<br />Penelitian ini menganalisis fenomena deagrarianisasi yang terjadi pada komunitas petani di pedesaan Jawa. Penelitian dilakukan dengan pendekatan studi kasus eksplanatif. Perspektif emik digunakan untuk melakukan pembacaan jarak dekat (close reading) melalui partisipasi observasi. Data diperoleh melalui pengumpulan dan penganalisaan pengalaman individu (life history). Analisis data dilakukan secara deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa karakter sebagai desa agraris masih tetap bertahan. Desa masih memiliki petani dan masih menunjukkan aktivitas pertanian yang dilakukan secara aktif. Produksi pertanian masih berjalan. Meskipun demikian karakter komunitas agraris sebagai penopang desa agraris mengalami peluruhan secara pasti. Komunitas agraris bukanlah petani yang mengerjakan lahannya sendiri, tetapi mereka adalah ‘petani semu’ yang mempekerjakan orang lain untuk mengolah sawah. Ancaman deagrarianisasi yang nyata bukan berasal dari luar komunitas, melainkan hadir dari dalam komunitas petani sendiri. Pertanian secara aktif berhenti pada generasi kedua. Generasi ketiga dari komunitas petani lebih lekat dengan berbagai aktivitas non pertanian yang tumbuh semakin eksklusif.<br />Kata kunci: petani semu, pertanian, deagrarianisasi, komunitas</p>

Abstract: Population density is a serious problem for the existence of the peasant community and its agricultural landscape. In this situation, deagrarianization becomes a necessity because the economies scale of farming are becoming smaller and not profitable for peasants. This paper aims to analyze the community's strategy in maintaining its agrarian landscape. Data for this study were obtained through community case study method. Live in strategy is done for 2.5 months to deepen understanding at the community. The results showed that the peasant community was actively defend not to get out from agriculture. Expansion by increasing land ownership and reducing population numbers are the two main strategies. This strategy allows the ratio of agrarian landscape and agrarian density not to make the younger generation lose the opportunity to own agricultural land. Optimism to increase ownership of agricultural land for the younger generation is done by buying agricultural land from those who are not interested in pursuing agriculture.Keywords: land ownership, agriculture, deagrarianization, community strategyIntisari: Kepadatan penduduk merupakan masalah serius bagi eksistensi komunitas petani dan bentang agrarianya. Dalam situasi serupa ini, deagrarianisasi menjadi sebuah keniscayaan karena skala ekonomi usaha tani menjadi semakin kecil dan tidak menguntungkan bagi petani. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis strategi komunitas dalam mempertahankan bentang agrarianya. Data untuk penelitian ini diperoleh melalui metode studi kasus komunitas. Pendalaman di tingkat komunitas dilakukan dengan live in selama 2,5 bulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa komunitas petani secara aktif berstrategi untuk tidak keluar dari pertanian. Ekspansi dengan menambah kepemilikan lahan dan mengurangi jumlah populasi merupakan dua strategi yang utama. Strategi ini memungkinkan rasio bentang agraria dan kepadatan agraris tidak membuat generasi yang lebih muda kehilangan kesempatan untuk memiliki lahan pertanian. Optimisme menambah kepemilikan lahan pertanian bagi generasi yang lebih muda dilakukan dengan cara membeli lahan pertanian dari mereka yang sudah tidak berminat menekuni pertanian.Kata Kunci: kepemilikan lahan, pertanian, deagrarianisasi, strategi komunitas

The paper analyzes the key contents of the policies on agricultural land of the State of Vietnam today, such as, the tenure of agricultural land ownership, the State’s guidelines on land price, the policy on concentration and accumulation of agricultural land, the policy on agricultural land tax and policy on compensation for agricultural land recovery. Then the paper process to evalute the impact of Agricultural Land Policies to Vietnam’s Agriculture in the Renovation Period as well as the Impact of Agricultural Land Policies on Agricultural Land Fund. The paper also analyzes both the positive impacts and unexpected impacts of Land Policies on the Peasant Life. Through the research the paper comes to the conclusion that despite many outstanding achievements of renovated management policies on the agricultural land, there will be new issues and problems relating to policies on land, which should be addressed timely and prorperly in order to help Vietnam develop its modern and sustainable agriculture.

Migration is not only limited because of the driving and pulling factors from the area of origin and destination. Individual socio-economic factors are important factors that determine the decision to migrate. This study aims to analyze the influence of individual socio-economic factors on migration in East Java Province. The panel data used are longitudinal data from the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS)-4 and the IFLS-5. In this study, the individual social factors consisted of age, sex, education, marital status, family size, and residence characteristics. Moreover, the individual economic factors comprise land ownership for agriculture, ownership of health insurance, loan ownership, and poverty status. By employing the binary logistic regression analysis, we found that migration in the population of East Java Province was influenced by age, marital status, education, and characteristics of residence as social factors as well as agricultural land ownership and health insurance ownership as economic factors.

Students of the land ownership patterns in Pakistan have always been hampered by extreme lack of data, neither the 1960 census nor the 1972 census reveal anything about the actual ownership structure of land. Khan's book goes some distance in providing numbers on land ownership (for 1971 and 1976), and also documents methods and failures of land reform efforts over the past century in Pakistan, disaggregated to show efforts in this regard in both the provinces of Sind and Punjab. The book actually provides an overwhelming amount of data - some 87 pages of charts and tables document a book of under 200 pages of text.

The use of sewage sludge in agriculture decreases the pressure on landfills. In Romania, massive investments have been made in wastewater treatment stations, which have resulted in the accumulation of important quantities of sewage sludge. The presence of these sewage sludges coincides with large areas of degraded agricultural land. The aim of the present article is to identify the best technological combinations meant to solve these problems simultaneously. Adapting the quality and parameters of the sludge to the specificity of the land solves the possible compatibility problems, thus reducing the impact on the environment. The physico-chemical characteristics of the fermented sludge were monitored and optimal solutions for their treatment were suggested so as to allow that the sludge could be used in agriculture according to the characteristics of the soils. The content of heavy metals in the sewage sludge was closely monitored because the use of sewage sludge as a fertilizer does not allow for any increases in the concentrations of these in soils. The article identifies those agricultural areas which are suitable for the use of sludge, as well as ways of correcting some parameters (e.g., pH), which allow the improvement of soil quality and obtained higher agricultural production.

The article is devoted to substantiating the prospects for increasing the marginal volumes of agricultural production for export in the next four years. Two scenarios of such production are considered: 1) expansion and 2) intensification of the use of land resources. As part of the development of the first scenario, an analysis of the distribution of unused agricultural land, including arable land, by federal districts was carried out. Also, based on the forecast of the introduction of additional annual volumes of acreage in the subjects of the Federation, the calculation of additional volumes of agricultural production, which can be expected in the next four years, was carried out. The analysis of data on the increase in the yield of export-oriented crops over the past five years has been carried out, in the framework of the second scenario, the calculation of the projected additional yield due to the intensification of agriculture is presented. The results of the study indicate that the intensification of agriculture will have the greatest impact on the growth of production and export of agricultural products in the near future.

The article, based on a comprehensive analysis of regulations, doctrinal approaches and case law, substantiates the understanding of the term "agriculture" in terms of purpose (use) of land. Direct analysis of regulations revealed that agricultural land is land provided for agricultural production, agricultural research and training activities, location of relevant production infrastructure, including infrastructure of wholesale markets for agricultural products, or intended for these purposes. In turn, the purpose of the land is the permissible limits of land use by citizens and legal entities (acquirers of such a right) established by law and specified by the relevant body (which transfers such land into ownership or use). The basis for determining the purpose of the land is its belonging to the appropriate category. The main criterion, for example, to distinguish agricultural production (agricultural activity) from other activities is the use of agricultural land as the main (basic) means of production. As a result of the study, it was concluded that the term "agriculture" can be understood in its broad and narrow sense. In a broad sense, the term "agriculture" is the use of land for commercial agricultural production, farming, personal farming, subsidiary agriculture, individual and collective gardening, haymaking and cattle grazing, for research and training purposes, provision of services in agriculture, placement of infrastructure of wholesale markets for agricultural products, as well as other activities on agricultural land, depending on the activities provided by law and the constituent documents of the economic entity. In a narrow sense – this is the purpose of agricultural land. The understanding of the term "agriculture" as the purpose of agricultural land is used by the court in resolving disputes.
