Tananews reports that the government of Madagascar leases out land for 50 or more years at prices as low as $15 per acre a year (fr) to Indian farmers (via the IndiaTimes). The blog wonders why such stories fail to stir up the same outrage at the national and international level as the other notorious land grab attempt by Daewoo in 2008 that contributed to the demise of former president Ravalomanana.
