« Since the Land Code of 1983, all land has been owned by the State. Customary tenure is widely common in rural areas but not legally recognized. Mauritania’s legislation provides special rights for pastoral lands and oases, however. The lack of access to land is one of the major factors contributing to poverty in the country. »
