11. Farming on the world's edge

Author

McNaught, Alistair

Subjects
Agricultural ecology -- Falkland Islands, Geography, Petroleum, energy and mining industries
Abstract

The climatic conditions and geographical terrain of the West Falklands are ideal for pastoral farming. The large company-owned farms have been subdivided since the 1982 Falkland Island war. The subdivision has meant better productivity management, but because the subdivision was done without professional surveyors there are conflicts such as maintenance of collectively owned farm equipment and distribution of water. Increasing isolation and unemployment have also become problems. Oil development may bring more prosperity but it will also destroy the cultural fabric of West Falkland.
