    The main problems of agricultural progress in the developing economy
    (Uludağ Üniversitesi, 1982) Runowicz, Adam
    All the less economically developed countries, without exception, have at least one common feature - a backward economic structure. And the characteristic feature of this structure is its dualism: The coexistence between a more or less dynamic modern sector and a more or less stagnant traditional sector. At the beginning, the modem sector involved a small percent of the country's population workforce, while the traditional.sector the overwhelming majority of the society. At first, for quite some time, the expansion of the backward sector of the economy seemed to be a quantitative process. The modem sector grew. and the traditional sector gradually shrunk. This, however, leads to a new quality which can only be a single sector economy, uniform as regards economic relations. Only such an economy can be termed highly developed. A highly developed economy has areas and sections, but it does not have sectors with differing types of economic relations. A poorly developed economy does not have many areas and sections - instead, it has sectors. The core of the traditional sector is agriculture, although it also includes traditional, small trade and handicrafts. Since the subject of this paper is agriculture- we shall turn it ourselves to that. It might, perhaps, be a simplification, but the essence of agriculture in a developing economy could be presented as follows: Agriculture in such an economy is now a sector{traditional one{ - while, it is to become only an economic sector.
