Coping with displacement: adjustments to rural livelihoods following relocation from Celaque National Park, Honduras
Agricultural intensification is a common outcome of increased population densities in areas of land scarcity. Here, a comparative analysis of households relocated from Celaque National Park, Honduras, serves as a case study of intensification resulting from decreased access to land. However, in contrast to a single trajectory of intensifying agriculture, nearly half of the households used wage labor to acquire additional land in an attempt at post-relocation agricultural extensification. This paper contributes to the agricultural change literature through the application of household strategies of communal action and increased use of familial labor to promote more-extensive forms of agriculture in a situation of land scarcity.
