Análisis del fraccionamiento predial y antieconómico en los municipios de Puerto Salgar y La Calera dentro del contexto de la distribución y tenencia desigual de la tierra rural en Cundinamarca, Colombia en el periodo 2015 - 2018

Abstract

The monograph text discusses the problem of land fragmentation in global agrarian systems, highlighting its impact on productivity and quality of life in rural areas. It mentions different academic studies that have addressed its causes, as well as the interest in quantifying this phenomenon through indexes such as the GLFI proposed by Demetriou in 2013. In the Colombian context, inequity in land distribution is pointed out, with unsuccessful land reform attempts. It focuses on two municipalities, La Calera and Puerto Salgar, where land fractionation is observed for various reasons, such as demographic pressure and real estate speculation. In addition, aspects such as agricultural technification and access to bank credits are discussed, highlighting the disparities between large and small landowners. Emphasis is placed on impartiality in the presentation of data and testimonies in the monograph.
