	Land Reform - Réforme Agraire - Reforma Agraria 2002/2
		However, customary tenure systems are presently under stress in Nigeria from two major sources: the growth of population and the advances being made or sought towards the modernization of agriculture through investment, market orientation, technology and attempts to increase size in order to achieve economies of scale (Parsons, 1970).
		In southwest Nigeria, individual ownership of land is on the increase as the traditional land tenure system discourages the cultivator from investing in land improvement owing to the lack of assurance against various rights of other members of the society to the piece of land in question.
		In southern Nigeria, the rapid population growth with an already large base engaged in agricultural pursuits, the deterioration of the quality of cropped land due to shortening of the fallow period, and access to markets for cash crops have combined to make agricultural land scarce and therefore more valuable.
