Cadastral systems • Township and Range System (rectangular survey system): Based on a grid system that creates 1-square-mile sections • Metes and Bounds Survey: Uses natural features to demarcate irregular parcels of land • Long-lot Survey System: Divides land into narrow parcels stretching back from rivers, roads, or canals

  6. Metes and Bounds Survey • Example of how it would apply to farmland surrounding a river http://www.fairview-industries.com/gismodule/PartOneMetes&Bound.html

  9. Property Inheritance • All land is passed on to the eldest son • -Called Primogeniture (Germanic system) • -Parcels tend to be larger and farmers work a single plot • -Seen today in Northern Europe and the areas that were colonized by Northern European countries (the Americas, S. Africa, Australia and NZ)

  10. Property Inheritance 2. Land is divided among heirs -Considerable fragmentation over time -Seen today throughout much of Asia, Africa and Southern Europe and most of the allotted Indian reservations in the US -Land reform initiatives have consolidated landholdings in some places, but fragmentation is still common worldwide

  11. Dispersed Settlements • Land is intensely cultivated by machine, not by hand • Typically found in the United States Midwest • Isolated from neighbors as opposed to living side by side

  12. Nucleated (or Clustered) Settlements • Land is intensely cultivated by people and animals • Number of families living in close proximity with fields surrounding houses and farm buildings • Most prevalent rural residential pattern in agricultural areas

  13. Agricultural Villages

  14. Functional Differentiation • A stilt village in the Mekong Basin of Cambodia
