Abstract: (Show)

The article analyzes the pattern of land concentration in the 75 districts of Nepal. It examines the factors associated with the variation in land concentration. The article analyzes the relationship between land concentration and agricultural production, and highlights the policy implications of the findings. The collected data suggests that in Nepal, more equal distribution of land exists in less developed and topographically rugged districts. Conversely, more unequal distribution of land exists in socioeconomically and topographically better-off districts. (Rajeev Ranjan Singh 2007-03-05)
