Lordship and Locality in the Long Twelfth Century
A new perspective on lordship in England between the Norman Conquest and Magna Carta. Multiple lordship- that is, holding land or owing allegiance to more than one lord simultaneously- was long regarded under the western European "feudal" model as a potentially dangerous aberration, and a sign of decline in the structure of lordship. Through an analysis of the minor lords of Leicestershire, Derbyshire, and Staffordshire during the long twelfth century, this study demonstrates, conversely, that multiple lordship was at least as common as single lordship in this period and regarded as a normal practice, and explores how these minor lords used the flexibility of lordship structures to construct...
Eucalyptus
Eucalyptus, a genus of over 800 species, is a multiproduct crop par excellence.

Since the first commercial distillation of eucalyptus oil 150 years ago, a vast array of eucalyptus-based pro

The Use of Spices and Medicinals as Bioactive Protectants for Grains
Opinion now favours a shift away from reliance on conventional insecticides towards the use of more natural, sustainable methods of protecting stored foods from insect damage. This bulletin considers alternative materials applicable for use as food storage protectants, concentrating particularly on plants which have found other uses as food spices or in medical applications. Over 100 plant species are described in detail with photographs. There is also a brief update on current research on the use of plant materials as storage protectants.

Private Sector Response to Agricultural Marketing Liberalization in Zambia
This report examines the efficacy of the agricultural sector reforms that have been implemented in Zambia since 1991/92 when the MMD government of Fred Chiluba was elected to office. On the basis of empirical material gathered in the field, the report demonstrates the limitations of the reform and identifies a number of constraints that have hampered the private sector and made the agricultural marketing system remain relatively underdeveloped.
