Moving off the farm: Land institutions to facilitate structural transformation and agricultural productivity growth in China (2012, unknown): “Regarding transferability, measures to facilitate marketbased land transfers, e.g., by increasing coverage with land certificates and outlawing reallocation can potentially make very positive contributions to the economy (Carter & Yao, 2002).”
Land Sales and Rental Markets in Transition: Evidence from Rural Vietnam (2003, unknown): “Giving households the opportunity of engaging in non-agricultural employment will imply that differences in agricultural ability would have to be added as those with low levels of ability would tend to pursue off-farm jobs while those with higher levels of ability would aim to increase the amount of”

The potential of land rental markets in the process of economic development: Evidence from China (2005, background): “It has been argued that, in a dynamic environment that is characterized by increasing levels of offfarm employment and rural–urban migration, the ability to transfer land will attain great importance (Carter and Yao, 2002).”
Land Registration, Governance, and Development : Evidence and Implications for Policy (2009, background): “Renting out allows landowners to take up nonfarm jobs without losing their assets or closing off the possibility of returning to farming and allows tenants to increase incomes by cultivating larger areas (Carter and Yao 2002; Kung 2002; Deininger 2003).”
Theorizing Land Cover and Land Use Change: The Peasant Economy of Amazonian Deforestation (2007, background): “Determining the extent to which peasant households conform to separable or nonseparable behavior has been an important issue in development economics (e.g., Benjamin 1992; Carter and Yao 2002).”
