VILANE), smallholder irrigation schemes (F. de VLETTER), contractfarming and outgrower schemes (M. NEOCOSMOS and J. TESTERINK), spending behaviour of migrant workers (J. BARENDREGT and M.A. BROUWER), small-scale irrigation (D.C. FUNNEL), the urban informal sector (M.S. MATSEBULA), the marginalization of women traders (H. SANDEE and H. WEIJLAND), women's informal savings and credit associations (S. KAPPERS), the position of women in Swazi traditional society (R. ASTUTI), soil conservation (C. REIJ), and the future of the peasant economy (M. RUSSELL).
