The effect of land tenure across food security outcomes among smallholder farmers using a flexible conditional difference-in-difference approach
H. K. Ibrahim, S. L. Hendriks, and H.C. Schönfeldt
Informa UK Limited
ABSTRACT The paucity of literature on the influence of land tenure across a range of food insecurity outcomes may impede a complete analysis in developing countries. This paper examines the association between land tenure and food security among 1434 sampled smallholders from the Nigeria Living Standards Measurement Study-Integrated Surveys on Agriculture (LSMS-ISA) three-round panel dataset. The data were analyzed by a flexible conditional difference-in-difference model and a generalized ordered logit regression. The regression results showed that smallholders who owned land and acquired plots for free were less likely to have high Household Dietary Diversity Scores (HDDS). On the other hand, owners of family-inherited plots were more likely to consume diverse diets and hold more assets. Holders of informal land documents were more likely to be food secure by having a low food expenditure share, high HDDS and Livelihood Coping Strategy (LCS). Meanwhile, perceived rights to mortgage land for a loan may be enhanced with having formal land certificates than informal land documents. The study concluded that formal land governance should recognize land ownership via family inheritance and holding informal land documents to support smallholder food security by increasing their dietary diversity and lowering their food expenditure shares.

Modeling of Compressive Strength Characteristics of Structural-sized Afara (Terminalia superba) and Babo (Isoberlinia doka) Timber Columns Using Constant Failure Rate (CFR) Model of Reliability
A. Jimoh, R. Rahmon and K. Ibrahim

This paper investigated the reliability of the Structural-sized Afara and Babo timber species as column materials. The work centers on the compressive strength characteristics of Nigerian Afara (Terminalia superba) and Babo (Isoberlinia doka) timber column of nominal lengths 200, 400, 600 and 800 mm and a nominal width and thickness of 50 mm by 50 mm. The steps involved collection and conditioning of Afara and Babo timber species, preparation of test specimens, determination of physical properties such as moisture content and density, determination of compressive strengths using varying heights of 200, 400, 600 and 800 mm and derivation of continuous column design equations. Forty test samples were used in all the tests carried out. Afara and Babo have an average density of 509.80 and 849.67 kg/m3 respectively. Moisture content of both species less than the maximum recommended value of 20 % and the average strength at yield of Afara and Babo are 19.99 and 30.96 N/mm2. The derived continuous equations for design of Afara column and Babo column are σ=〖16.992e〗^(0.0039λ) and σ=〖32.031e〗^(-0.001λ) respectively. The results of the reliability analysis show that Afara and Babo timber species have reliability index of 0.63 and 0.64 respectively for a service life of 50 years, assuming other serviceability conditions are met. This design procedure is distinct and more effective than the usual procedure of classification of compression members as short, intermediate and long. The paper therefore recommends the adoption of these equations for the design of compression members from these timber species in Nigeria.
