This report explores how the law shapes opportunities for accountability in relation to land deals for agribusiness investments. The report draws on country studies in Cameroon, Ghana and Senegal. 

In recent years, Cameroon has been approached by growing numbers of local and international investors wanting to acquire arable land for large-scale agro-industrial operations. In order to make a realistic assessment of the situation, this study takes a closer look at large-scale land acquisitions by the agro-industrial sector since 2005.
