farm economy enabled the level of exploitation in the
commodity producing sector to be increased. Further, I
presented some basic comparative indices of the overall level
of poverty and underdevelopment in the region. In _ this
chapter I will outline the background of a selection of some
of the most important agrarian development strategies which
have been promoted by one or other of the national and
international agencies at various times in their attempts to
eradicate poverty and promote development. My purpose in
doing this is to raise a number of questions of a general
nature which might contribute towards an understanding of
some of the specific problems associated with rural poverty
and agrarian underdevelopment, which we can then begin to
address through outlining the basic principles of a socialist
alternative to these which could form the first principles of
a rural development programme. In order to tease out the
issues associated with agrarian underdevelopment I will
summarily review three well established rural development
strategies and put forward what I consider to be an outline

strategies are: 1. Community Development: 2. The Green
