Abstract: The rural and urban sectors of the economy are strongly interlinked. Growth in one sector impacts on the other. The growth process does not appear to be an equilibrium one in which marginal adjustments to opportunity costs eliminate disparities. The ·two sectors grow in an unbalanced way. So far, the economic advantages appear to have favored the urban sector.
