ProjectMainstreaming the National Land Consolidation Programme in North Macedonia - GCP/MCD/002/EC 2023
Also available in:
No results found.The average farm size in North Macedonia is 1.8-1.9 ha, which is considerably below the average farm size in the European Union of 16.6 hectares. In addition, the small farms consist of several parcels (usually 5-7), which are often distant from each other and lack access to irrigation, drainage and road infrastructure. The fragmentation of both land ownership and land is one of the greatest challenges for the country’s agricultural sector, having adverse effects on the productivity, competitiveness and efficiency of farms, and preventing further modernization and economies of scale. Since 2012, the country had already taken several steps towards the development of an operational National Land Consolidation Programme. This European Union-funded project has aimed to assist the Government in taking the final steps to make the Programmefully operational and to implement the first round of land consolidation projects on the ground, in order to improve the competitiveness of the country’s agriculture sector, in line with European Union policy. -

Also available in:
No results found.FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations) and other development partners are working together with countries to prepare Voluntary Guidelines that will provide practical guidance to states, civil society, the private sector, donors and development specialists on the responsible governance of tenure.
