Albania has gone through three waves of land reform since the end of World War II: * In 1946, the land in estates and large farms was expropriated by the communist government and redistributed among small peasants; * In the 1950s, the land was reorganized into large-scale collective farms; * After 1991, the land was again redistributed among private smallholders. == Background == At the end of World War II, the farm structure in Albania was characterized by high concentration of land in large farms. In 1945, farms larger than 10 hectares, representing numerically a mere 3% of all farms in the country, managed 27% of agricultural land and just seven large estates (out of 155,000 farms) controlled 4% of agricultural land, averaging more than 2,000 hectares each, compared to the average farm size of 2.5 hectares at that time.〔''Statistical Yearbook of the Popular Republic of Albania 1963'', Department of Statistics, Tirana, 1964〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Land reform in Albania」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
