Tenurial rights and conservation behavior in highland Cordillera [Philippines]
1993
Calanog, L.A.
Results showed that tenurial status has no influence as far as perception of control over the land is concerned. Whether one is full owner [as in the case of Free Patent (FP), Certificate of Land Ownership Award (CLOA) and Certificate of Ancestral Land Claim (CALC)] or simply a steward [as in the case of Certificate of Stewardship Contract (CSC)], the feeling of having authority over the land is still present. Similarly, there is no significant relationship between perception of full control and the different conservation behavior factors. Attitude towards tenurial rights is also found not significantly related with conservation behavior factors. These findings do not conform with the general belief that tenurial security leads to a better management of upland areas. Number of meetings attended and tenurial status are not significantly related. It is the exposure to extension agents and technicians that leads to the higher attendance of CSC farmers. Social services amenities are found significantly related with some conservation behavior factors, while among the demographic characteristics, age is the only variable significantly related to meeting behavior. Overall, the lack of a positive correlation between tenurial right and conservation may be explained by the cultural factor which, however, was not thoroughly explored in this study
