Cultivating Cooperation: The Impact of Formalizing Land Rental Contracts on Refugee-Host Interactions and Agricultural Production in Rural Uganda
REFNo: SS3408ES
In northern Uganda, food insecurity is high for many refugees, who cultivate land for their subsistence in the vicinity of the settlements. A large majority of these refugees do not have a formal written land rental contract with their landlords. While informal institutions and agreements can have enforcement power in socially and culturally homogeneous groups, their efficiency tends to decrease with social and cultural distance. In this setting of cohabitation between Ugandans and refugees, the absence of clearly defined terms of trade often limits successful farming outcomes, as refugees’ rights to what they earn, produce, and consume are more vulnerable to changes. Suggestive evidence indicates that formal land contracts grant greater security, which can lead to increased farm profitability, investment and credit opportunities, and greater economic diversification and growth.
We will conduct a randomized pilot evaluation to measure the impact of formalized land rental contracts between refugee tenants and host community landlords. In the treatment groups, the landlords and tenants will receive support to formalize their land rental agreement. In the control group, landlords and tenants will remain with verbal and informal land rental agreements. We will evaluate indicators such as trust, social cohesion, agricultural practices, and food security. The study will also investigate why formalized land rental contracts are not more widespread in rural Uganda. The sample will include tenants from the Bidibidi, Imvepi and Rhino refugee settlements and landlords from the host communities.
