For some time to come the poorer countries of the world will have to rely on agriculture to raise their living standards and supply the capital they need to create industries. Agricultural production must therefore be increased. This requires tractors, fertilizers, new and better seeds, vast irrigation schemes, land reforms.

Headline Human Settlements - The Places Where Peole Live and Work 
Caption Description One of the main purposes of the UN Conference Exposition on Human settlements held in Vancouver, Canada in June 1976, was to bring to the world's attention the nature and relative importance of the problems of human settlement against a background of widespread concern for the whole of our earthly environment- natural and man made. Two of the most critical problems of society today are the shortage of adequate housing and deterioration of the conditions under which people live and work. Many cities are unable to provide adequate housing, food, sanitation, work and other essential services for all the people. Rural settlements are being abandoned and neglected. Urbanization is not an evil in itself. The process can be guided and converted into a positive factor in development.
