CT. Effects of land registration and title on security of tenure, use of formal credit, crop yields, and land concentration are analyzed from household and plot data in four Kenyan sites. Re- sults indicate that the registration and titling pro- gram had a weak impact on perceived land rights of farmers, credit use and terms, crop yields, or concentration of land holdings. The conclusion is that titles are acquired for enhancing security of rights rather than for increasing agricultural pro- duction. Scarce government resources are best targeted towards providing better infrastructure and market opportunities, which should also fos- ter a greater demand for titling.
