In August 2001, The Government of Tanzania (GoT) approved the Agricultural Sector Development Strategy (ASDS) which envisages an agricultural sector that, by 2025, is modernized, commercial, highly productive and profitable, and utilizes natural resources in a sustainable manner. The ASDS has identified five strategic issues:

• Strengthening the institutional framework.

• Creating a favorable environment for commercial activities.

En "Estructura y dinámica del dominio de Santo Toribio de Liébana (siglos XIII-XVI)" se trata de explicar las características diferenciales que presenta un dominio monástico del área septentrional de la Península Ibérica. En la primera parte, siglo XIII y principios del siglo XIV, se considera que la pobreza material que ostenta el cenobio, observable en el escaso volumen de la renta y en las sucesivas enajenaciones de bienes efectuadas por sectores jerarquizados locales, es el resultado de la dispar consolidación de las estructuras feudales en el espacio.

This strategy is an integral component of the ongoing macroeconomic adjustment and structural reforms that are supported by Tanzania's development partners.

Resumen
El sector rural y agropecuario de Guatemala, Honduras y El
Salvador sigue manteniendo diferencias marcadas entre un subsector moderno y muy
tecnificado y otro, más numeroso, con baja eficiencia en el aprovechamiento de
los recursos. Este contraste provoca una incapacidad para cubrir las necesidades
en alimentos de la población, acelera el ritmo de degradación de los recursos
naturales, genera desempleo y eleva los indicadores de pobreza rural.
En la estructura agraria de estos países se observa aún una

In the developed countries less than 20 per cent of the population is engaged in agriculture. The rest is employed in the industrial sector. In the underdeveloped countries less than 10 per cent of the population is employed in the industrial sector and the rest is engaged in agriculture.

The land question is a contradiction in land rights and consequential social, economic and political abuses replicated on it.
