“…Though the state extorted farmers and had a minimal development policy until 1950, from then on it began to distribute international aid through investments in collective infrastructures and through its newly created institutions. At the same time, however, Nepal's land reform movement did not have the hoped-for redistributive effect observed in many South American countries (Jessenne et al 2016). At the end of the 1980s, the paradigm shift towards participatory management took place, responding to demands for structural adjustment, neo-liberal economics and decentralisation policies present in all countries of the Global South.…”

“…Indeed, land reform, by facilitating access to land for those who depend of it, favours area stability following fair land distribution. It helps guarantee both the survival of those who cultivate the land and livelihood of the entire population, given the significant role of peasantry farming in food production (Fernandes, 2010;Jessenne et al, 2016).…”

In Africa, there is still observed a land related legal plurality despite innovations undertaken since colonial times. In DR Congo, while by law land remains the property of the State, it remains difficult to manage rural lands, ignoring customary practices. In fact, alongside the “modern” land administration, the majority of rural lands are covered by customary contracts. Meanwhile, these contracts have evolved due to different socio-political issues in the DRC and particularly in its eastern part. This study aimed at understanding these changes and thus the impact resulted in agricultural activities, especially the small farmers’ technology choice. The study is based on households’ surveys in the Mbinga Sud zone as well as from other stakeholders on land in the Kalehe territory, South Kivu province, eastern DRC. Through this study, it is noted that customary land contracts have sufficiently evolved due to the population growth, innovations taken in land administration in the country, the wars that occurred in the eastern DR Congo, the attractiveness of rural land by elites and rich businessmen leading to land concentration etc. Given this situation, some practices such as purchase and lease of land were thus developed to cope with weak customary land acquisition mechanisms, the land scarcity and / or land depletion and the fear of land grabbing by the strongest. These changes also have an impact on some agricultural practices, including the fertilization of farms, the choice of crops and varieties to grow as well as many other cultivation techniques.
