Planning Innovations in Land Management and Governance in Fragmented Rural Areas: Two Examples from Galicia (Spain)

Francisco-J Ónega-López, José A. Puppim de Oliveira, Rafael Crecente-Maseda · 2010 · European Planning Studies

Summary. Land fragmentation in rural Galicia creates obstacles for agriculture and forestry, leading to abandonment and social decline. Traditional consolidation approaches fail due to high transaction costs. Two innovative governance models in Galicia combined individual and common property rights to improve land management without changing ownership. These structures increased labour productivity, clarified property rights, and reduced abandonment while promoting sustainable land use.
