Abstract
In 2004 I was fortunate enough to be able
to return to Ha Tumahole, the village
in Lesotho where I undertook research
on farming and livelihoods in 1976–77,
and spend four weeks learning about what
had changed in people’s lives and land use.
This time, I paid particular attention to the
arrangements people make to share resources
and to help each other in their farming and
in other aspects of their livelihoods. The
work is intended to contribute to the research
component of CARE’s Livelihoods Recovery
through Agriculture Programme (LRAP).
