The NGO Forum selected the most important recommendations for inclusion in this document and for presentation to MAFF :

1) Change the draft basic approach from one of imposing rules and penalties to one of providing assistance, advice and incentives. 2) Provide land for family farmers from cancelled economic land concessions (ELCs). 3) Strengthen provisions that protect poor occupants of lands inside ELC 4) Simplify regulations involving indigenous peoples’ communities. 5) Ban the reclassification of state public land for private development use

It is also suggested alternative process for adopting the law; delaying its adoption until a new agricultural policy is adopted.
