| Abstract: | A brief historical development of agricultural production in KwaZulu and the state of agriculture in Natal/KwaZulu today is presented. Evidence of severe constraints to agricultural production have been found in a recent survey conducted in a peri-urban area in KwaZulu. The extent to which agricultural marketing is a major constraint is analysed in relation to other more fundamental limitations. It is argued that the institutional origin of many of the latter constraints hinders the efficacy of agricultural marketing in bringing about dramatic changes in production patterns. |
