First deeds for “sor por kor” land to be distributed to farmers on Jan 15
Today 14:34Key points summarised by AI
Agriculture Minister Thammanat Prompao announced the distribution of new "land title deeds for agriculture" on January 15, upgrading existing "sor por kor 4-01" certificates.
This significant reform allows farmers to sell or mortgage their land under specific conditions, a major departure from previous restrictions that only permitted inheritance or specific bank mortgages.
The initiative aims to enhance farmers' quality of life by providing greater financial flexibility, complemented by the Land Reform Office's plans to develop infrastructure, install utilities, and offer occupational training and funding.
