ABSTRACT

There are limiting factors of a personal nature for the specific research. Personal time and resources form the main constraints. General limitations are that obviously national statistics in former communist countries do not always use the same definitions for the same terms and that statistical data are difficult to compare in time because of implicit factors that are ignored or used differently in later statistics. The method for rapid assessment of a land reform project has been used to evaluate the land and agrarian reform project in the Kyrgyz Republic. Using the method for rapid assessment gives the assurance that some effects easily overlooked or ignored during the busy time of project implementation will get attention. Effectiveness of the project will increase because inconsistent expectations of assumed relations can be corrected by additional supportive measurements.
