The Comparative Studies of the Agrico-pastoral Societies in the Arid Africa.

该项目的目的是研究非洲东北部农牧社会中的技术和土著民间知识，在苏丹北方和埃塞俄比亚西南部进行了调查，通过各国研究机构的奋进和合作，我们可以首先研究我们的幸福感。每个研究人员在自己的领域呆了几个月，通过对当地人的直接观察和采访，我们可以获得许多符合项目目的的有价值的信息。本文的主要研究结果如下：1.考察了几个具有不同农业制度的社会，并将其作为对生态环境和社会环境的适应来进行比较研究。2.着重探讨了一个社会内部农业与畜牧业的相互关系，这一问题在以往的研究中被忽视了。这一问题对于理解农业与畜牧业之间的相互关系具有重要意义。3.考察了农业与畜牧业之间的相互关系，并对农业与畜牧业之间的相互关系进行了探讨。4.考察了农业与畜牧业之间的相互关系，并对农业与畜牧业之间的相互关系进行了分析维持生计经济的结构和做法。

The aim of this project was to study both the technology and the indigineous folk knowledge on the subsistence economy in agricultural and pastoral societies in northeasten Africa.The survey was conducted in the northern Sudan and southwestern Ethiopia.Thanks to endeavor and cooperation of the research institution of each country,we could make researches to our safisfaction as a first step. Each researcher stayed in his field for a few months.Through direct observations of and interviews with the local people,we could obtain a lot of valuable informations in line with the aim of the project. Mamor results are as follows.1.Several societies with various kinds of agricultural systems were studied.This woould lead us further to a comparative study of these societies viewed as the adaptations to ecological and social environments.2.Another emphasis was put on the interrelationship between agriculture and pastoralism within one society which has been rather neglected in the former studies.This problem seems to be very important in understanding the structure and practice of the subsistence economy.
