Commodification of family lands and the changing dynamics of access in Ghana

Adwoa Yeboah Gyapong

Summary: The study highlights how the politics of compensation and rent distribution following large-scale expropriation of family lands for an oil palm plantation in Ghana's eastern corridor alters power structures within families, exacerbating inequality. Family heads used this process to increase their influence and income at the expense of smallholders, sharecroppers, migrants, women, and youth. Civil society and researchers can influence public policies to protect marginalized groups in the face of continued farmland investments promoted by the state.

Determinants of Relevant Constraints Inhibiting Farmers' Adoption of Climate Change Adaptation Strategies in South Africa

K. T. Thinda et al.

Summary: The study found that constraints of adopting climate change adaptation strategies among smallholder farmers are mainly due to their lack of knowledge about climate change. To enhance farmers' adaptive capacity, government and development partners need to collaborate to improve conditions for farmers to access climate change information and suitable agricultural credit.
