Abstract

[fre] L'idée selon laquelle la performance agricole est liée à la répartition des terres entre les exploitations est largement admise. Toutefois, la nature des droits acquis sur la terre et la sécurité qui lui est associée sont également à l'origine des choix des agriculteurs en matière d'investissement et de techniques de production. L'objectif de cet article est de faire apparaître l'impact de l'expansion, puis de la fermeture de la frontière agricole sur la répartition des terres et les modes d'accès à la propriété foncière en Thaïlande. Les conséquences des lacunes de la législation foncière sur l'amélioration de la productivité de la riziculture, choisie en raison de la spécialisation rizicole très ancienne de la Thaïlande, sont également discutées. [eng] There has long been evidence of the influence of land distribution upon agricultural performance. However, the lack of secure ownership is expected to influence the farmer's decisions regarding the investment and the production techniques he may undertake. The objective of this paper is to highlight the impact of the land frontier on land access and land distribution in Thailand. The extent to which the land law deficiencies jeopardize the rice productivity improvement is then investigated. The rice sector was chosen because Thai agriculture has long been dominated by rice farming.
