Local Stakeholders’ Preferences for Foreign Land Lease Design Attributes in Kenya David Jakinda Otieno & Willis Oluoch–Kosura University of Nairobi Oral Presentation at the 17 th Annual World Bank Land and Poverty Conference, Washington, DC, USA; 14 – 18, March 2016

1. Research Context  There is huge potential of foreign land leases in economic development – food, employment, capital for infrastructure and other services.  But lack of or inadequate stakeholder consultations in foreign land deals leads to – displacement of land owners, poor/non-compensation, resource use conflicts & disruption of investments.  Lack of empirical insights on key features that should be included in a participatory lease design.

2. Methodology  Setting: Tana Delta area in coastal Kenya with various foreign land lease deals  Focus group discussion with key stakeholders in the land system – to understand & validate land lease attributes  Choice experiment design of land leases options  Random survey of 200 farmers  Random Parameter logit (RPL) analysis of preferences for foreign lease design attributes

Land Lease Attributes in the Design AttributePossible Levels Lease duration in years15; 25; 55 Renewability of the lease (after negotiations)Yes; no % of household land to be leased10%; 25%; 50% Employment to household membersCasual; permanent Payment of land per ha (% of market price)50%; 75%;100%

Example of Lease Options AttributeLease type ALease type BLease type C (Neither A nor B) Lease duration (years)5525 RenewabilityYesNo Lease size (% of land)50%10% EmploymentFormal Payment75%100% Which ONE would you choose?

3. Results - Over 60% of farmers had positive preferences for all lease attributes except long lease duration of 55 years

4. Conclusions & Policy Implications  Incorporate the desired attributes in future foreign land leases  Ensure transparent lease negotiations to promote harmony between land owners and investors  To address local people’s fear of displacement, provide mechanisms for foreign investors to make full disclosure of country of origin, lease intentions & investment plans  Establish an all-stakeholder inclusive local management committee to administer the leases  Need for further insights on farmers’ perception on benefits of foreign land leases to livelihoods and development.
