Paraguay| Supreme court rules on land survey. On 21 February Paraguay’s supreme court ruled that a local Alto Paraná judge, Rafael Jacobo, will be in charge of carrying out the official survey of lands in the Ñacunday area. The survey had initially been carried out by the military which, local landowners complained, had been influenced by the landless farmers. Jacobo will now be in charge of the process of surveying 257,904 hectares of land in the Alto Paraná department to determine if there are any surplus fiscal lands.
