英文文献摘要:
Cameroonian farmers face two tenure systems: a modern regime and a customary regime. These two regimes are perpetually confronting each other, putting farmers in a total uncertainty as to the regime to adopt to ensure the sustainability of their ventures. This study aims to assess the influence of land tenure security on agricultural productivity through credit access. To achieve this goal, a two-stage sampling technique was applied to data from the third Cameroon Household Survey (ECAM 3). The number of farmers selected for the analysis was 602. These data were analysed using descriptive and three-step recursive regression models. The results of the analysis reveal that land tenure security improves agricultural productivity through the credit access it allows. A proof of the robustness of this result has been provided through discussion of the effects of land tenure security in different agro-ecological zones and through a distinction between cash crops and food crops. The overall results confirm that land tenure security positively and significantly influences agricultural productivity. The regression has also shown that the size of the farm defined in one way or another, the perception of farmers on their level of land tenure security and therefore indicates the intensity with which land tenure security influences agricultural productivity. The recorded productivity differential indicates that smallholder farmers, because they keep small farms, feel safer and produce more than those who keep medium-sized farms. The results also show that land tenure security significantly improves the value of production per hectare of food products that are globally imported into Cameroon. Therefore, we recommend that the public authorities promote land tenure security by reinforcing the unassailable and irrevocable nature of land title, but also by easing the conditions of access to it.
喀麦隆农民面临两种保有制度:一种是现代制度,另一种是习惯制度。这两种制度总是相互对立,让农民们完全不确定该采用何种制度来确保他们的企业的可持续性。本研究旨在评估土地使用权保障通过信贷获取对农业生产率的影响。为了实现这一目标,对第三次喀麦隆住户调查(ECAM 3)的数据采用了两阶段抽样技术,选择602名农民进行分析。使用描述性和三步递归回归模型对这些数据进行分析。分析结果表明,土地使用权保障通过其允许的信贷获取提高了农业生产率。通过对不同农业生态区土地保有权安全影响的讨论以及对经济作物和粮食作物的区别,证明了这一结果的稳健性。总体结果表明,土地保有保障对农业生产力具有显著的正向影响。回归还表明,以某种方式定义的农场规模、农民对其土地保有权安全水平的看法,因此表明了土地保有权安全对农业生产率的影响程度。记录的生产率差异表明,由于小农经营小农场,他们比经营中型农场的农民感觉更安全,产量也更高。研究结果还表明,土地保有权保障显著提高了全球进口到喀麦隆的每公顷粮食产品的生产价值。因此,我们建议政府当局加强土地业权不可侵犯和不可撤销的性质,同时放宽取得土地权的条件,以促进土地保有权的保障。
