The Land Act 1920 was a significant piece of legislation in the United Kingdom aimed at addressing land ownership and agricultural issues after World War I. It facilitated the transfer of land from large estates to smaller farmers, promoting the idea of land reform and improving agricultural productivity. The Act also aimed to provide financial assistance to returning soldiers, enabling them to acquire land for farming. Additionally, the Act established the Land Settlement Association, which was responsible for managing the distribution of land and ensuring that new farmers received the necessary support. This legislation was part of broader efforts to revitalize rural economies and support those affected by the war.
