Alejandro Reyes on Colombia's new land policy

This is a video (in Spanish) from Alejandro Reyes, the assessor to the government's new program of land redistribution. He lays out the major points of the new land policy:

• closing of the agricultural frontier, i.e. setting aside of all forest areas as natural reserves
• elimination of illegal armed groups and peasant colonists from indigenous and Afro-descendant reserves
• access to land for peasants that leave natural areas and stop planting illicit crops
  
• end to the chemical war against illicit crops
• shift of focus from large-scale livestock grazing to smallholder farms through intensification of livestock raising and redistribution of pasture land
• restoration of violently-cleared lands to the people displaced from them
• formalize land titles for peasants
• prevent acquisition of land by illegal groups for money-laundering purposes
• legally revoke title to idle farmland
• promote the creation of Peasant Reserve Zones by improving government investment in infrastructure for these zones
• reconstruction of two government institutes--the National Council and the National Unit on Land
• retooling of the National Institute for Rural Development
• survey of stolen land to reconstruct pre-displacement land titles, and government indemnization to current landholders who can prove that they didn't know the land they bought had been stolen
