During field surveys in two of these areas south of Harare, in 1983 and 1984, samples of farming households were asked to indicate what they considered to be the major obstacles hindering them from increasing their crop production. Five of the most frequently cited constraints are discussed in this paper. These are: (1) the lack of money with which to purchase seasonal agricultural inputs, particularly fertilizers; (2) the lack of basic farming implements, notably the ox-drawn single furrow plough; (3) the lack of draught cattle; (4) inadequate arable land; and (5) inadequate family labour for agricultural work. The magnitude of each of these constraints in terms of the proportions of households affected is discussed using survey data from the two samples of 430 and 371 households in Mhondoro and Save North communal areas respectively.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100060,"journal":{"name":"Agricultural Administration and Extension","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0269-7475(88)90009-8","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87061943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both government administrators and coffee growers were unprepared for this event. Both short-term and long-term strategies to meet this threat are outlined. Short-term measures include improved coffee husbandry by growers and use of fungicides with government assistance. Long-term measures suggested include the introduction of rust-resistant varieties, crop diversification, intercropping and mixed cropping. The successful implementation of such strategies is likely to require reforms in the government's administration of the coffee industry in PNG. Some shortcomings of the existing administrative system are indicated and an alternative structure is proposed. It is suggested that many LDCs dependent on perennial crops could face similar biological threats to their crops, so that PNG's case may be of wider interest.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100060,"journal":{"name":"Agricultural Administration and Extension","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0269-7475(88)90102-X","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83293735","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper suggests that dependent systems are more likely to have been created on gently sloping land cut by gullies and small, locally deep valleys than on land without such valleys.
