Land improvements enable cultivation of poorer quality land, leading to higher rent potential. Taxes on rent may impact landlords' willingness to make enhancements.
Improvements in land allow for poorer quality land to be cultivated and increase rent potential as population and capital grow. Soil-improvements such as drainage and irrigation work fall into this category, enhancing the land's productivity.
