Farmers and Soil Conservation in the Caribbean is presented in two parts. Part One examines the status of soil erosion and conservation in the Caribbean region, the sociological factors in soil conservation programmes, and the legal and institutional context in which all soil conservation must be implemented and managed. Part Two focuses on the technology. It examines the farming systems' approach to soil conservation and the methods now being employed to ensure that conservation projects are integrated into the farming system.
