Colombia's peaceful agrarian reform transforms land ownership
The Agrarian Reform Institute since 1961 has issued titles to over 100000 families, now averaging about 50 acres each. By 1969 eighty thousand families were buying farms under a government program with US AID credit and technical help enabling loans exceeding 18.5 million dollars. The shift from sharecropping to land ownership has doubled income for many small farmers.
