The Land was a 1913 work by Seebohm Rowntree. In his work Rowntree argued that poverty would be reduced by increasing the number of small landownings which farmers had. The work was commissioned by David Lloyd George who would later become Prime Minister.^[1]

The Land was the report of the Land Enquiry Committee, instituted by Lloyd George to investigate the condition of workers housing in Great Britain and make recommendations for its improvement. The committee was chaired by A. H. D. Acland, and included sitting Liberal MPs and the poverty campaigner B. Seebohm Rowntree.

The first volume, on the rural situation, was published in 1913; followed by the urban volume in 1914. The publications were made while the Land Valuation Survey that was incorporated in the "People's Budget" (Finance (1909-1910) Act was taking place.
