Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Although early observers found African agricultural systems traditional and conservative, in more recent years we have begun to understand their dynamic nature. Agricultural practices in Sukumaland have been recorded for over 100 years; this information can be used to test theories of agricultural development. Farming systems research has itself had some static tendencies. Here farming systems dynamics -including consideration of the land, labour, and capital intensity of a system - is advocated as giving a more adequate perspective. Labour productivity is seen as a key variable.
