| Hunger has become such a significant and strategic problem in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) that it can no longer be evaded. With the majority of Africans living in rural areas, rural and urban population both rapidly increasing, cereal and livestock production stagnant or falling, 194 million people living with food insecurity, child malnutrition doubling, poverty increasing, and economic growth lagging behind other developing regions, a new development strategy incorporating different approaches needs to be developed for this region. To drive out hunger, agriculture needs to be the core component of poverty alleviation programs in SSA, but agriculture alone will not end hunger. Seasonal migration and rural nonfarm activity are also important to the livelihood... |

| A Szigetközben a legnagyobb értéket maga a táj képviseli, melynek megőrzése, fenntartása, a valamikori híres állattenyésztés újraélesztése különösen nagy feladatot ró a mezőgazdaságra, a vállalkozókra. A vizsgálatok középpontjába a szigetközi állatitermék-termékpályája állt, továbbá a térség állatitermék-előállításának vidékfejlesztésben betölthető szerepe és lehetőségeinek feltárása szerepelt. A vizsgálati eredményeket helyzetértékelési modell foglalta össze, mely szerint csökkent az állatállomány, a gazdaságok száma és a kibocsátott állati termékek mennyisége, korszerűtlen a technológia és technika, a vertikális termékpálya hiányos és feszültségekkel terhelt, a gyepgazdálkodás lehetőségei kiaknázatlanok, a gazdálkodók termelési motiváltsága alacsony... |

| This paper analyses expert attitudes to managing rural development in both established (EU15) and New Member States (NMS). It draws on case studies of five regions in the EU15 that have undergone, at least in some respects, successful rural development post-accession. Lessons of best practice were identified from interviews and supporting documentation, and verified / refined using a policy Delphi exercise. The results highlight the importance of creating appropriate national and regional structures to implement EU funded projects, capacity building, decentralisation, social capital and networking, and the role of “institutional memory”. |

| After more than ten years of rural development programmes in Andalusia, there is ongoing concern about the sustainability of the rural development initiated by the LEADER-PRODER programmes in the hypothetical event that such programmes were no longer in place. In order to be able to express an opinion about this issue, it is important to answer to an entire series of questions about the concept of territorial competitiveness as a guarantee of the long term viability of a rural area. In order to be able to respond to these questions, as part of a wider research project into the transformation of rural areas in Andalusia, the competitive position of 3 territories in the "Campina Alta" (Cordoba), which have been benefiting from rural development programmes... |

| The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is a cornerstone of EU policy relating to rural areas. Initially, it aimed to provide a harmonised framework for maintaining adequate supplies, increasing productivity and ensuring that both consumers and producers received a fair deal in the market. These priorities have shifted to environmental and animal welfare concerns, as well as food safety and security aspects. As a consequence, the CAP has gradually moved from a production-based structure of subsidies to a market-oriented system, integrating standards for food, environment and biodiversity, as well as animal welfare. In 2010, the EU launched an extensive debate on the future of the CAP, as the European Union needs a better tailored, reformed Common Agricultural... |

| This paper seeks to develop a methodology that will be useful for rural water districts in assessing the future of their water systems infrastructure. In particular, the use of free water simulation software and publicly available data on population, roads, and terrain present rural water systems with the opportunity to analyze their existing distribution system and forecast where problems are likely to occur. This methodology will allow various alternatives (such as consolidation with a neighboring system, or pipe upgrades) to be evaluated and the costs of implementing these alternatives to be explored. Finally, different avenues for funding the associated costs can be summarized and presented to the community, including the steps needed to apply for... |
