This is a collection of studies that were presented at a workshop held at the University of Florida Gainesville April 30-May 2 1988. The contributors examine the relationship between population growth and agricultural intensification through a case study approach that is sensitive to historical data. Through an examination of different high-density populations in Nigeria Rwanda Tanzania Uganda and Kenya it is possible to see changes in technology and productivity over time and to isolate the conditions under which agricultural intensification follows population growth and is sustainable in the long term. In this approach the book offers concrete examples of positive relationships between population growth and agricultural intensification examples with important implications for policy and land-use planning.
