As a rule we are only revising and re-arranging the existing AGROVOC terms and NOT adding new terms at this stage. But during the revision of existing terms, we ARE elevating some concepts from being non-descriptors to Descriptors in their own right. Land mobility is one such concept.
“Land mobility” is the movement of land parcels between farmers through sales or exchange. - (FAO Land Tenure Training Materials on Land Consolidation Pilot Projects)
This concept is gaining importance in the wake of urban-rural migration, expansion/encroachment of urban structures (roads and buildings) into rural areas, political promises and women asserting their property rights.
