Rural Development is a continuous
process
 This means it is developmental and progressive
 Primarily concerned with the optimum
utilization of resources (Human, economic,
social, and physical)
 Its main objective is to raise the standard living
of the local residents.
Rural Development program should be
integrated, well planned, coordinated
 The approach must be multi-sectoral, that
planning should start from below.
 The target population should directly and actively
participate in planning, and in the implementation
of their own rural development programs
 In the less development countries, the main
emphasis of rural development program is
Agricultural development, non-farm activities
are also developed
 Rural development promote a balanced
development of all sectors in rural areas.
 Should start with economic needs of the people
Rapid population
growth
Rural communities
in Less developed
countries
Dependence on
primitive agriculture
Behind modern science
and technology
Some people do not
own land
According to Robert MacNamura (former
president of World Bank)
• 800 million people (absolute poverty)
• 200 million among the poorest experience a
human standard of living in the year 2000
• Rest of the poorest continue to exist in world—
without enough food, shelter, and clothes.
According to Dr. Dioscoro Umali (former UP Los
Baňos chancellor)
• Rural poverty and hunger are not the real
problem. (these are the symptoms of actual basic
problems)
• Basic problem are Unjust economic, social,
political structure.
According to Dr. Dioscoro Umali (former UP Los
Baňos chancellor)
• In the less developed countries, the main
economy in the rural areas is Agriculture. Thus,
Land is the principal wealth of society,
• For as long as much unjust inequality exist, all
rural development programs are cosmetics—and
therefore useless.
They should own the
resource production
Focused on the interest and
improvement of the quality
of life of rural poor.
They should be encouraged to
participate in planning,
implementation and managing
rural development programs
TRUE RURAL
DEVELOPMENT
“You do not help people if you
do the things for them which
they themselves can do.”
--Abraham Lincoln
By Doctor Umali
• The task of helping the rural poor, while difficult,
is achievable
• He cited the success stories of Japan, Korea,
and Taiwan in field of rural development
• By improving the structure of institutions,
fashioning appropriate development strategies
and better use of resources, such countries
were able to transform their rural areas form
Poverty to Prosperity
• The primary responsibility of fighting rural
poverty rests on the government
• Development is people development
• Government rural development programs
cannot be succeed if the people are not
developed first.
Development can only grow in an atmosphere of
freedom and opportunity
• A more structured rural development
program in the Philippines started in the
1950s.
• Most of the Rural development projects
were assisted by US in the form of
financial, technical and commodity aid.

the national economy
