Title: An overview of agricultural and rural development problems in less developed areas of Southern Africa
Author: Bembridge, T. J.
Appeared in: Development Southern Africa
Paging: Volume 3 (1986) nr. 1 pages 20-36
Year: 1986-02
Contents: The problems discussed in this paper are essentially the influence of various factors which underlie the present low levels of agricultural production and the constraints to development of the less developed rural areas of Southern Africa. The nature, intensity and output of small-scale farming systems are dependent upon the interactions between and within five groups of factors: physical and ecological; the agri-milieu; institutional and operational; the human potential; and technology. This paper discusses previous and present development trends, and reviews the interrelated problems of use of physical resources, the agri-milieu, human resources, institutional problems and technology. Suggestions are made for a co-ordinated strategy at national and local level aimed at removing some of the present barriers and constraints to agricultural and rural development.
