自耕农是苏格兰高地和岛屿特有的一种土地管理制度，它保证占有小块土地的佃户（自耕农）的保有权和可继承的权利。它作为该地区可持续发展的贡献者的主张早已得到认可（Hunter 1991）。然而，人们担心它是否有能力继续有效地发挥这一作用。这些问题围绕着土地占有和使用、人口保留和农村社区凝聚力之间的一系列复杂关系。反过来，这些关系提出了一个重大的挑战，为决策者努力协调法律的权利赋予佃农通过累积的立法机构可追溯到19世纪末与21世纪的政策背景下，集体，包容性和日益下放的农村发展的方法正在迅速获得货币。
Crofting is a system of land management unique to the Highlands and Islands of Scotland which guarantees security of tenure with heritable rights for tenants (crofters) occupying small land holdings (crofts). Its claim as a contributor to the sustainable development of the region has long been recognised (Hunter 1991). However, there are concerns about its continuing capacity to fulfil this role effectively. These revolve around a complex set of relationships between land occupancy and use, population retention and the cohesion of rural communities. In turn, these relationships present a significant challenge for policy-makers struggling to reconcile legal rights granted to crofters via an accumulated body of legislation dating to the late 19 t h century with a 2 1 a century policy context in which collective, inclusive and increasingly devolved approaches to rural development are fast gaining currency.
