Análisis histórico de la fragmentación de la propiedad rural en la parroquia Vilcabamba

Abstract

Abstract: This study proposes to analyze the evolution of the fractionation of rural property in the Vilcabamba parish, through an analysis of the number of transfers and surface area, land regulatory entities and times. Using a database containing the transfers registered in the Property Registry, a descriptive statistical analysis was applied based on values such as: geometric mean, number of annual transfers in previously cleaned data with the most representative transfers and registered surface areas, contemplating the study period. The results indicate an increase in the number of transferred plots, the 80's promoted the transfer of land with benefits granted by the laws and land regulatory entities in force at that time; the most usual size of the transferred land was less than 0.1 ha, followed by transfers with areas less than 0.25 ha. Transfers by purchase and sale dominated over time, but in the 1980s they suffered a slight decline, which led to a peak in the number of adjudications in this decade with the support of the new reforms of the time.
