Agricultural development in Zimbabwe

Natural resource degradation in Zimbabwe has increased dramatically over the past decade. The most urgent need for an environmentally sound and socially balanced new development attempt lies with the marginal rural areas. However, the environmental and development problems cannot be taken in isolation from the wider context of structural, economic, social, institutional and legal factors. Facilitating sustainable agricultural development in Zimbabwe is a series of reports and working papers from a study, whose objective was to analyse the complex problems of natural resource degradation in the semi-arid zones of Zimbabwe and to identify the underlying causes. On the basis of empirical findings that were gained in the Mutoko district the report also tries to formulate specific recommendations for halting resource degradation.
