description This paper presents a theoretical model to analyze the incentives for protecting soil productivity in presence of separation of property and control in agricultural land. Using a dynamic model of contracts between the landlords and operators we analyze the incentives of different type of contracts (fixed rate contracts or sharecropping contracts) and their potential impact on soil conservation. The main research question of this paper is: do landlords and tenants have conflicting incentives regarding soil conservation? Our theoretical results are consistent with previous empirical literature that find that, depending on the contract specifications, there are no conflicting incentives.

Este artículo presenta un modelo teórico para analizar los incentivos para proteger la productividad del suelo en presencia de separación de propiedad y control en tierras agrícolas. Utilizando un modelo dinámico de contratos entre los propietarios y los operadores, analizamos los incentivos de diferentes tipos de contratos (contratos de tasa fija o contratos de aparcería) y su impacto potencial en la conservación del suelo. La principal pregunta de investigación de este documento es: ¿los propietarios y los inquilinos tienen incentivos contradictorios con respecto a la conservación del suelo? Nuestros resultados teóricos son consistentes con la literatura empírica previa que encuentra que, dependiendo de las especificaciones del contrato, no existen incentivos contradictorios.
