Interesting discussion - and the issues are critical to agricultural development. We have been working in rural villages for the past 14 years and have identified the absolute necessity that small scale production must be part of an integrated system if it is to be sustainable and have the required impact. We have developed an 'Integrated Village Renewal Programme". Which looks at a wide range of services/requirements with agriculture forming the cornerstone for development.
Will see if I can post the executive summary of the plan which was finalized in 2008 and which we are currently implementing
