Ny jordreform i Danmark

Changing societal challenges and priorities call for new ways of managing agricultural land and for new forms of land ownership. The Danish pilot programme for multifunctional land consolidation (MUFJO) is seen as a frontrunner for a larger land reform. The programme ensures collective planning and long-term solutions, but cannot alone ensure the goals for re-wetting agricultural lands as stipulated in the Danish agricultural climate agreement, nor a more democratic land governance. It is time to deliver on the political ambition of a larger land reform in Denmark.
