Extract

Few topics in recent years have captured the attention of agricultural economists more than community and rural development. But seldom has the extension of economics been the principal concern. As I worked on this paper with that concern in mind, the topic took on the appearance of an iceberg. Beneath the surface I have encountered many new challenges to economics and the economist, and some that are not so new.
