Abstract
The Agricultural and Rural Development Institute faces considerable problems in trying to prioritise its research activities in the 1900s. This is because in this decade the country will be going through fundamental changes from apartheid to a non-racial democratic order. These changes will also affect the development of rural areas. What these changes are, how they will impact developing areas, the extent and depth of their impact, and the ability to anticipate them beforehand, will all greatly determine the design of research priorities for ARDRI. Moreover, ARDRI's experience in developing areas will be invaluable in this challenging task. This paper identifies broad areas within which specific questions will require research attention in the 1990s and possibly beyond.
