Excerpt from Foreign Agriculture, Vol. 10: A Review of Foreign Farm Policy, Production, and Trade; September 1946 Cuba's present agricultural income both from sugar and from other products is more than double that of the years immediately preceding the war. This increase, however, is attributable chiefly to wartime prices and sugar prosperity rather than to the effect of agricultural policy and pro-grams. N 0 figures are available concerning the indebted ness Of Cuban farmers, but a safe assumption is that it is much lower now than before the war, and that this also is due largely to recent prosperity.

Excerpt from Mangos of Cuba Cuba must be numbered among those tropical countries in which the mango is King of Fruits. Whether one grants that it is the finest fruit in the island - and there is no lack of Cubans who will affirm this to be a fact - one is forced to admit that it is by far the most abundant. It springs up on all sides, wherever a seed chances to fall upon favorable ground, forming a large, handsome tree which embellishes the landscape and provides in the summer months a wealth of luscious fruit.

Cuba is widely recognized for its social achievements including health care, education, social security, subsidized food and other benefits and opportunities, despite well-meaning, or sometimes not so well-meaning, international criticisms. For more than 50 years, this Caribbean island has defended and sustained these economic, political, social and cultural gains, and has maintained a commitment to humanitarianism and international solidarity that persists to this day. Part one of Unfinished Puzzle describes the socioeconomic context of Cuban agriculture, the natural environment that affect it and the international political context in which it has developed. Part two explores the unique agricultural policies Cubans implemented to confront the food and economic crises of the early 1990s. Finally, part three examines the lessons to be learned from the Cuban experience with respect to local development, sustainable agriculture, agroecology, food security and food sovereignty. It highlights the elements of the Cuban system most suitable for replication in other countries facing similar circumstances or challenges.
