New journal for rural development practitioners

The readership is intended to include practitioners in rural development projects and programmes witfi international organizations, governments, NGOs, research and training institutions and private firms. Subject matter is thematic: the first issues have been concerned with rural credit, rural marketing, rural diversification, and rural technologies. Annual subscription is UK24 or equivalent.
