Problema en la formalización de la propiedad rural

Abstract

Colombia continues with the informality of land in the countryside, over the years is a problem in which many governments have worked in order to one day have a country with a high percentage of legally constituted land. Article 64 of the Constitution states that it is the duty of the state to promote progressive access to land ownership in order to improve the income and quality of life of peasants. The formalization has been a matter of great importance in the programs of Government betting on the rural development. The National Government, through the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, has supported the peasant to resolve the situation of informal land ownership that prevents him from being a legitimate owner. Most of the peasants who are far from the municipal capitals have not been able to access this benefit; they have not received support that would allow them to finally obtain a title that would accredit them as owners. This document seeks to analyze the effects of the Program for the Formalization of Rural Property created by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development in Colombia, and to emphasize the importance of providing accompaniment to our peasants so that they can access this benefit. Taking into account that they are a very important part of our society, which allow us to have the agricultural products that supply our family basket.
