    • Rapid rural appraisal techniques are designed to avoid pitfalls common to some rural research, including neglect of interviewees located far from cities and the tendency to meet only with officials and local elites rather than those who are powerless or in distressed circumstances. Rapid rural appraisal assumes that rural people have valuable knowledge regarding subjects that affect their lives. For further discussion, see Robert Chambers, 'Rural Appraisal: Rapid, Relaxed and Participatory', Institute of Development Studies Discussion Paper No. 311 (October 1992); and R. Chambers, 'Shortcut and Participatory Methods for Gaining Social Information for Projects', in Michael Cemea (ed.).

    • The Russian term for family farm is often translated as 'peasant farm'. In this article 'family farm' is used to refer to entities registered in Russia as 'peasant (farm) enterprises' operated by a single family or small group of individuals. 'Agricultural enterprise' is used to refer to larger agricultural producers, including collective farms, state farms, production cooperatives, joint stock companies and large partnerships. 'Agricultural producer' is used to refer to all types of agricultural producers.

    • Raion norms are calculated by dividing the amount of agricultural land in the raion by the entire rural population, rather than using the smaller denominator of agricultural workers and pensioners in the raion. The raion norm is used to establish the maximum size of land shares, as well as the maximum amount of land that can be allocated free of charge to the ownership of a family farmer who receives land from the land fund rather than withdrawing land shares from an agricultural enterprise.

    • Presidential Decree No. 1767 also gave land plot owners the right to sell, bequeath, gift, mortgage, lease, exchange or contribute their land. Unfortunately, no implementing regulations have been adopted to allow most land plot transactions to be completed.

    • Although most land share certificates had been issued prior to enactment of Presidential Decree No. 337 the oblasti visited were making a concerted effort to complete the task of issuing all land share certificates to the rightful land share owners by the Decree No. 337 deadline. In Samara ablast' 96% of the 223 000 land share owners had received their certificates by September 1996. In Vladimir ablast' 93% of the 98 000 land share owners had received their certificates.

    • This provision abrogates the allocation procedure that was contained in Government Resolution No. 96, On Procedure for Exercising Rights of Owners of Land and Property Shares' (1 February 1995), which required a land share owner to go to court if he could not obtain the agreement of all land share owners regarding location of the land share to be allocated as a land plot in kind. The reference to 'compact location' has been interpreted by officials in at least one raion we visited to give them authority to allocate land plots contiguous to existing family farms which lease in land shares.

    • Another former Soviet republic, Kyrgyzstan, which faces similar issues of determining location when land share owners withdraw, is considering a unique 'negotiated selection' procedure. In this procedure, the individual wishing to withdraw land and the remaining co-owners of the land take turns proposing a field on which the withdrawing owner's land share will be demarcated in kind. If one side rejects the other side's proposal of a particular field, that field is removed from the negotiation. The process continues until one side accepts the other side's proposal, or until only one field is left. At that point, the plot or plots are demarcated in a contiguous area on the edge of that field by the raion land committee (interviews with Kyrgyzstan's Deputy Prime Minister Bekbolot Talgarbekov, July 1996 and January 1997).

    • A lively market appears to have developed for purchase and sale of small plots (dacha plots, garden plots and household auxiliary plots) since Government Resolution No. 503 ('Rules of Purchase and Sale of Land Parcels by Russian Federation Citizens', issued 30 May 1993) set forth the procedures and form of contract. In Samara oblast', for example, there were 13 500 registered sales of such plots in 1995, and a further 8600 sales in the first half of 1996. (Figures gathered at the federal level indicate a total of 200 000 registered small plot sales in 1995, but the Samara figures suggest that this total may be too low.)

    • At least two other laws address the consequences of violation of land use laws. Article 11 of the Law on Peasant Farms lists the duties of individuals operating family farms, which include using the land effectively, increasing its fertility, performing conservation measures, and preventing deterioration. If there is a violation of these duties, the head of the family farm 'is accountable under current legislation'. Article 53 of the 1991 Land Code provides that land plot owners, possessors, users and lessees shall have similar obligations to those listed in the Law on Peasant Farms, and article 125 specifies fines for 'administrative and criminal responsibility for violations of Land Legislation'.

    • Although RDI researchers conducting fieldwork did not find any family farmers (or prospective family farmers) interested in acquiring buildings from agricultural enterprises, lawyers from the Centre for Land Reform Support in Vladimir ablast' encountered a family farmer who sought and ultimately acquired a cow barn as part of her instalment purchases of 31 property shares from departing members of a large agricultural partnership. It should be noted that any person who acquires such a building shall also receive, without payment, the land beneath the building, under Presidential Decree No. 198, 'Right of Ownership of Citizens and Legal Persons to Land Parcels Under Real Estate in Rural Localities' (14 February 1996). Consolidation of the ownership rights to structures and the land beneath them may increase the collateral value of the buildings and simplify the process of lending against them. If long-term credit becomes available for repair of old structures or construction of new ones, more family farmers or departing property share owners may find allocation of buildings to be beneficial.

    • RDI attorneys conducting field research in Voronezh ablast' in 1995 also noted the popularity of credit in kind. In Voronezh, farmers were obtaining credit in kind through the Voronezh Agro Contract Organisation (VACO). Farmers who entered into a contract with VACO agreed to sell a portion of their crop after harvest at a set price. VACO then advanced them 25% of the credit prior to sowing, and another 25% prior to harvest. Advances were made in the form of inputs. After farmers delivered their product, they were paid the final 50% of the contract amount in cash. Farmers who entered into contracts with VACO indicated that the price they were paid for their crops was much lower than market price, and that they could have bought the same inputs supplied for less than the amount charged as an advance. Nonetheless, they entered into the contract because it provided the least onerous means of securing the necessary inputs for sowing and harvesting their crops.
