Orange Free State ; Small town ; South Africa ; Town ; Urban development
Current and future development challenges of small towns in South Africa in the post-apartheid era have been neglected. In an overview of small towns in the Free State current issues are identified and some development opportunities and ideas
for small towns are suggested. - (AJC)

Revitalized small towns in China

Small farmers'resources in rural development: current research and application
Technical change, labor use, and small farmer development: evidence from Sierra Leone. A view of the Plan Puebla: an application of hierarchical decision models. Impediments to technical progress on small versus large farms.

Blacks ; Economic activity ; Economic sector ; Ethnic group ; Industrial concentration ; Small firm ; South Africa ; Sub-contracting
The paper examines the problems and prospects of developing black small-scale enterprise as part of the challenge to re-balance racial economic power in South Africa. Major blocages to black small business development are identified. Policy issues
of concern include finance, training and urban planning. Considerable importance is attached to the potential for expanding subcontracting linkages between large and small production enterprises.

Work decentralisation from large to small firms : a preliminary analysis of subcontracting

The role of small nuclear reactors in the power systems of developing countries

Small farmers and the extension service in south-eastern Nigeria
Agricultural transformation in developing countries depends on the small farmer: widescale mechanization would be practically impossible, and innovations are difficult to introduce. A survey based on 36 villages in Anambra state focuses
on the problems of the small farmer and suggests that extension services to improve land tenure, cooperatives, marketing boards and methods of farm management could increase productivity. (EMS).

Modeling high sinuosity meanders in a small flume
This paper presents the results of experiments that simulated the formation of well defined, highly sinuous meanders in a small flume using light, fine grained materials.

Different small holder types and their development needs
A simulation model is used to demonstrate that the same technology is not equally attractive to two small holders with different resources and objectives, and that they have opposite reactions to the extension of two maize varieties in the absence

Hydrologic and physiographic characteristics of small, forested, humid tropical watersheds
Detailed studies of small areas could be helpful in understanding the same problems in larger basins in Nigeria. (EMS).
