The Indert issued property titles to families in Marina Cué, 14 years after the Curuguaty massacre, completing the titling of 100% of the 243 lots in the colony through peaceful agreements and mediation.
President Santiago Peña has proposed a bill to eliminate the 3% upfront payment for rural land titling in Paraguay, making it easier for thousands of farming families to obtain property titles and extending payment terms to up to 20 years for men and 30 years for women.
