Title
The land grabbers of the Nacala Corridor: A new era of struggle against colonial plantations in Northern Mozambique
Abstract
This report looks at the companies already setting up agribusiness operations in the Nacala Corridor, an area that the government has prioritised for agribusiness development. These companies, typically structured through offshore tax havens and often connected to Mozambican political elites, have been grabbing lands and extracting wealth in ways reminiscent of the country's colonial days.
