520 | 3 |a“The topic of this paper, being partly an economic and partly a physical review of native agriculture, and conditioned by the social and political environment of native developments, demands that some broad recommendations on agriculture be made. Certain agricultural enterprises are quite specific, so other recommendations will reflect the details of how native farmers might respond to actual opportunities. Throughout the following pages, the reader will find that a few dominant issues arise repeatedly: Individual native farmers, but more particularly Band Councils, have to make a decision on whether, for their reserve situation, agriculture is to be a market responsive development, or whether it is merely a companion activity to a more significant need for a residential use of the land. In the case of market responsive agriculture, whether by individuals, the Band, or in a joint-venture; the land base, capitalization, scale of operation, management abilities and the access to markets must be comparable and competitive with the non-native communities. The development of reserve agriculture, has in large part, lagged far behind that outside of the reserves. As such, the efforts to "catch up" and become comparable must be greatly increased in terms of support, services available, education of participants, availability of credit and so forth. Native staffing is key to acceptance of agriculture as a development priority. Programs are of little value unless they are delivered by appropriate agents to recipients that are conditioned to receive the benefits. Native agriculture must have the organization for information transfer, and planning and execution of agricultural programs”--Intro., p. 1-2. |
