Abstract:
|
"The Agricultural University of Norway has, during the past few years, been actively working with the problems of rural society as these are related to changes taking place in the Ukrainian society after the dissolution of the Soviet Union. This interest is organized as a development programme called Agroventure Ukraine, which has established contacts with Vojkovsky state farm in Zgurovka Rayon in order to explore and demonstrate how work and living conditions can be improved. Vojkovsky State farm is also participating in a Ukrainian-Norwegian joint venture company, aiming at improving their agricultural production. The problems encountered in the development program necessitate an investigation into the foundations for alternative local policies both at community level and business level."
