ABSI RACT Economic questions such as farm sizes and profits are considered. Farm size is defined as the number of persons on the cooperative farm, actual size of the farm, and the degree of mechanization. The farm size providing the highest income per person in the cooperative is about fourteen bectares per person. If a loss of ten percent income is acceptable, the farm size can be reduced to seven hectares per person. It is more advantageous to raise crops thar sheep, because sheep raising yields lower profits and requires a higher use of labor. Partial mechanization is better for smaller farms, while full mechanization is more profitable in larger farms. This pattern evolves because the smaller farms have a higher land-to-land ratio. Recommendations suggest the renting of land, upgrading of managerial and mechanical skills, standardized record­ keeping, and availability of an agricultural economists, 10. CONTROL NUMBER II.

INTRODUCTION Nature of the Problem and its Setting In 1953, when the Land Reform was launched, the Bolivian Government proceeded to transform agriculture from traditional to modern forms and methods. Although initially a change in land tenure arrangements, the Land Reform was intended to have far-reaching effects upon productive aspects of agriculture. Since inception of the reform, increased agricultural production, both to improve farmers' standard of living and to reduce the deficit in the balance of payments, has been one of the main concerns of the National Government in establishing policies for development of agri­ culture. A recent study (Clark 1968) has shown that any decrease in pro­ duction after 1953, especially in the supply reaching the cities, was not a direct result of the changes in land tenure effected by the Land Reform. Some reductions in agricultural supply were inevitable consequences of a popular Revolution (of which Land Reform was only one component) whose major aim was to destroy the minority-based power structure and to create a more broadly based government (Clark 1970, pp. 52-53). Within Government, both before and after the reform, there has existed the conviction that a necessary ingredient of agricultural development is a strong program of research and extension. This conviction stemmed from the realization of very low levels of education and technology within the agricultural sector. Policies were not always enacted in accordance with 2 that conviction mainly because of budgetary constraints. However, in recent years, renewed emphasis has been placed upon research and exten­ sion work revolving around the Experimental Stations. In the high plateau region, known as the Altiplano, the Ministry of Agriculture maintains three experimental stations: Bel6n, by Lake Titi­ kaka; Patacamaya, at the southern edge of the Department of La Paz; and Chinoli, in the Department of Potosi. The Experimental Station of Pataca­ maya, founded in 1958, has received a larger share of support and is viewed by the National Government as a pilot project in testing the role an ex­ perimental station can play in the development of the surrounding area. Although founded as an Experimental Station primarily for the improve­ ment of sheep, Patacamaya has also been quite successful in crop improve­ ments. Research in potato, quinua and forages has already yielded con­ eOdezabla increases in production. Recent informal experiences with gladiola and some vegetables seem to open new possibilities. And, of course, there is continuous work being done in improving sheep through cross-breeding with imported animals and through better feeding and management. Formal extension activities by the Station began in 1963. In 1966, the Development Area of Patacamaya was established and the cooperative firm was chosen as the framework within which extension work would pro­ ceed. Apparently, the activities and results of the Experimental Station are largely responsible for the new drive for progress which is quite noticeable throughout most of the Development Area. 3 Given the experience accumulated so far and the planning being done for the near future in the area, it seemed that economic analysis could make a valuable contribution to the developmental activities. Economic analysis should help answer questions that have been forming for several years in the minds of the personnel working in the Area of Patacamaya. These questions concern productivity potential, optimal farm size, scarcity of resources, employment opportunities, selection of activities and degree of mechanization to be promoted. This research endeavors to provide answers to these questions. Conclusions of this study should shed light on the possibilities of agriculture in the Development Area of Patacamaya. To the extent that the entire Altiplano has common characteristics, the conclusions can also suggest some general directions for the development of the entire region. Objectives of this Research The broad purpose of contributions from economic analysis to the developmental efforts in the Development Area of Patacamaya is specified for this study in terms of the following four objectives: (1) To determine optimal land/person ratios, optimal degree of mechanization and paths for mechanization in the Area. (2) To determine the quantities of land, labor, capital and water required under the optimal conditions established in objective one. (3) To determine the composition of crop and livestock activities and the level of output under the optimal conditions. 4 (4) To estimate changes in per capita income, employment and productivity of the Area to be realized under the optimal conditions as compared with present conditions. Terms included in these objectives, such as optimal, income per capita, factor productivity

ABSTRACT:Coprological surveys were carried out to study Fasciola hepatica infection in 5491 cattle from II zones and 107communities on the Bolivian Altiplano, where the highest prevalences and intensities in human subjects have been found. The research work had the aim of contribu- ting to the knowledge about the geographical distribution of the liver fluke and the epidemiological reservoir host role of bovines in the transmis- sion of the disease in this endemic area. According to the results obtained, the parasite is present throughout almost all the Northern Bolivian Alti- pIano, but it does not extend toward the Central Bolivian Altiplano, in the South.The total prevalence found in cattle of the Northern Bolivian Altiplano was 16,5%.

As a medium-term objective, the APL series pursues reducing the infant and maternal mortality rates by one-third, as per the proposed indicators for the Program. Public Disclosure Authorized Under APLs I and II an important set of policies and interventions were developed to strengthen the performance of the public health services. These policies and interventions aimed to improve child and maternal health status, including expansion of the insurance system (the Universal maternal and child insurance, SUMI, at present), the investments in primary health care, and the strengthening of cost-effective health interventions (PAI, IMCI).

The experience is related in narrative form and includes a diary entry about a visit to a native community and a ceremony that occurs there.
