  • Description: Rural development comprises three components: production, consumption and organisation. PRODUCTION points to the activities rural people undertake to obtain goods (such as food) and services (such as transport) for themselves and others in their community. Production can be measured in terms of the amount of money a rural family earns, or in terms of the amount of food the family grows and consumes. CONSUMPTION points to the fulfilment of the needs—in the first place, the basic needs—of rural families. Primary examples are the availability of clean water and of wood as a fuel source, of health and adequate nutrition, of education, welfare and transport. These needs are met by the delivery of services to a rural community. Services are provided in the first place by the central state, often through its local authority (in Ciskei, the Tribal Authority). They may also be provided by voluntary associations active in the community, or by the household itself. ORGANISATION points simply to the ways in which productive activities (work) and consumption (receiving) are linked together in a rural community. The structure of the Tribal Authority and village councils, of schools, clinics, agricultural cooperatives, churches and women's groups are examples. All these institutions are designed to improve production and consumption in a given rural community. A rural development strategy then is a strategy aimed at improving production, consumption and the ways in which these two are linked. A rural development strategy moreover is initiated by the central government and can therefore be seen as a relationship between the central government and rural communities in Ciskei. , Digitised by Rhodes University Library on behalf of the Institute of Social and Economic Research (ISER)

Protection from beetle-predation in cochineal insects (Dactylopiidae : Homoptera)

  • Authors: Morrison, John Frederick
  • Date: 1984
  • Subjects: Cochineal insect , Homoptera
  • Language: English
  • Type: Thesis , Masters , MSc
  • Identifier: vital:5819 , http://hdl.handle.net/10962/d1007282 , Cochineal insect , Homoptera
  • Description: From introduction: In South Africa the native ladybird beetle Exochomus flaviventris Mader feeds on the introduced cochineal insect Dactylopius opuntiae (Cockerell) (Pettey, 1943, 1946, 1948; Geyer, 1947 a, b; Pettey and Marais, 1950). It has also been reported to feed on Dactylopius austrinus Lindley (Geyer, 1947 a; Pettey, 1948), but this appears to occur rarely in the field (H.G. Zimmermann and H.G. Robertson pers. camm. ; Appendix 1 ). This thesis attempts to determine why E. flaviventris feeds on D. opuntiae in the field but not on D. austrinus.

Public utility pricing and industrial decentralization in South Africa

  • Authors: Wallis, Joseph Lyall
  • Date: 1984
  • Subjects: Industrial management -- South Africa Public utilities -- South Africa Pricing -- South Africa Decentralization in management -- South Africa

  • Description: From Introduction: 1. Background to the thesis: During the 1950' sand 1960' s it would appear that the explicit objectives of economic policy in South Africa were full employment and economic growth with some occasional emphasis on the pursuit of relative price stability. Other goals such as efficiency in resource allocation and the pursuit of an "acceptable" income distribution were at best implicit and subordinate to these objectives. This is exemplified by the fact that a number of key prices which were controlled by the authorities such as the exchange rate, interest rates and public utility tariffs were generally set at levels which were either over- or under-priced relative to factor scarcities throughout this period.
