AGRICULTURE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF PAPUA AND NEW GUINEA

M.L. Parker

Australian Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1971, vol. 15, issue 2, 13

Abstract: Primary production including subsistence production, accounts for about 60 per cent of the national income of Papua and New Guinea. The bulk of the indigenous people are subsistence farmers, or have contact with the cash economy through agriculture, and the agricultural industries provide virtually the sole source of export earnings. The position is nevertheless changing rapidly.
