La lutte pour la possession de la terre en vue de ses usages agricoles et non agricoles

Land as private property is reduce in as much as collective acquisitions for public purposes develop, especially through urban growth. At the same time, there exists a competition for land between individuals, farmers or non farmers, for different uses. Farmers try to enlarge their farms, too small to, be economically satisfactory, and urban inhabitants try to get rural space for their leisure time. The farmers, who now own about half of the farm land, buy more land than they sell. However, urban purchases have an impact on the landmarket, especially in price matters. This anarchic competition should be replaced by complementarity and an organization of the aspirations of the farmers and the urban inhabitants. This is why it is necessary to treat this problem together with general, country planning, and structural , reorganization.
