This study also argues that the LRAD system is a conceptual framework for the establishment of commercial agriculture on redistributed land that excludes agriculture at a subsistence level. Thus, the LRAD system requires subsistence farmers to upgrade themselves to commercial status immediately upon entering the system. Although the system provides. for the establishment of group projects by subsistence farmers under a communal property association (CPA) or trust, the farmers still do not amass enough agricultural resources, financial and otherwise, for competitive enterprise at commercial level.enDevelopmentFORESTRY, AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES and LANDSCAPE PLANNING
