Manufactured homes have been an important source of housing in the United States for more than a half century. As this unique form of housing continues to evolve, so does its delivery into rural markets. Over the past decade there has been a concerted effort by several entities to develop a manufactured housing “done right” model. National organizations, philanthropic foundations, and community-based nonprofits are rethinking the way manufactured homes are built, sold, financed, and placed. What progress has been made as a result of this initiative, and what are the continued challenges with manufactured housing in rural America? The session will include a discussion on the state of the manufactured housing industry, finance markets, nonprofit development, park preservation, resident rights, legislative initiatives, and regulatory developments for manufactured housing.

Presentation entitled ‘Sustainable Wastewater Management in Rural Housing Developments’ given on the 28th January, 2008 at the ESAI run Environ Colloquium 2008. For rural developments, it is frequently the responsibility of private developers to identify a suitable wastewater treatment system to treat the effluent. Frequently, the capacity of adjacent streams and rivers to accept further treated effluent is reached and a discharge of treated effluent to groundwater is the only viable option necessitating the processing of a Discharge Licence Application and the carrying out of a groundwater assessment to assess the assimilative capacity of the underlying aquifer. Under the Nitrates Directive, the quality of treated wastewater being discharged to ground is of paramount importance in conjunction with the background nitrate concentration. This presentation was 0.3 hours in duration and hosted approximately 200 delegates
While eroding housing affordability in thriving metropolitan areas is well known and discussed, many rural areas face affordability issues too. Rural Oregon, and the broader intermountain West, have affordability challenges similar to many of those popular metro areas.
This presentation will give a basic idea about our society. This will be useful for students of BVSc & AH, MVSc, MSW, Btech dairy science, BSc Agri etc
AUTONOMA - Dalia Munenzon - Continental Islands: Ceuta and Gibraltar A typolo...Autonoma Conference
Continental Islands (CIs) are a geomorphologic formation of land disconnected from the mainland while maintaining the same on continental shelf. This characteristic of connectivity and remoteness blurs the CIs relation to the geopolitical territory of the ‘mainland’. The geographical constraints & geopolitical ambiguity sets the CIs in an important infrastructural role in global political economy as spaces of exchange, trade and circulation. Consequently this multilayered aspect attracts competition over political and economic resources, which results in a social and urban spatial re-organization. The CIs discussed in this paper located on both banks of the Strait of Gibraltar in the Mediterranean. They are divided between Africa and Europe: Ceuta, a Spanish autonomous city surrounded by Morocco; and Gibraltar, a British overseas territory surrounded by Spain. Thus both territories are separated from their hinterlands and mainland. This paper explores the CIs as a typology of operational, transactional and infrastructural spaces and develops a design strategy, which will lead to the fulfillment of the autonomic potential of these territories.
Historically, both Ceuta and Gibraltar maintain extensive military infrastructure across their territories and are both dependent on their respective mainlands. This fact is a clear sign of their strategic geopolitical importance - an imperialistic manifestation of power and control. As a result of this relationship civilian and social infrastructures are marginalized and neglected by the mainland policymakers. Following the reduction of the military involvement in Gibraltar, the territory accepted it’s partial emancipation and used the new status as a tool for attraction of undisclosed and lucrative economic activities. On the other hand Ceuta is currently fully supported by Spain and functions as a black commodity market, transport hub and geopolitical territorial currency, while sustaining 32% of unemployment and a large immigrant community. In this paper the CI strategy will be examined by applying a new contrarian scenario of extended emancipation, which will suggest a future where local sociopolitical movements will transform Ceuta and Gibraltar and will set them as important nodes in the global economic nexus.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

3. Theoretical Background
Differentiated countryside (Morgan et al. 2000)
Southern European Model of Migrations (King 2000)
Californian Model of agriculture and reserve army of
labor (Berlan) in Southern Europe?
Multifunctional migrations in rural areas (Kasimis
2008)
4. The Mediterranean model of migrations
polycentric aggregation of migrants due to the presence of
several national groups and the continuous emergence of new
ones.
segmentation of the labor market according to ethnic
origin, as a result of stigmatization based on racial criteria
combined with capitalist restructuring and respatialization.
(King 2000)
Irregular immigrants
the apparent paradox of “cohabitation” exists between
immigration and unemployment
local demand for the labor force is directed toward less qualified,
poorly paid, and highly insecure jobs, while the local labor supply
is characterized by young people with a high level of education,
who, in turn, decide to migrate elsewhere.
underground economy
5. A Californian Model of agriculture?
Intensification of agriculture
immigrant labor force (flexible, redundant, and
willing to accept low salaries ) as structural need for
the development of the agricultural sector
Cycles of ethnic substitution
racism as an “ideological justification” for the
violence of agrarian social relationships (Berlan 2008):
“artificial barriers” corresponding to “administrative
barriers” have been created to the purpose of limiting
the mobility of workers, and assuring their under-utilization
and existence in a reserve army of labour
for the needs of intensive agriculture.
6. A Mediterranean model of agriculture
agricultural trade liberalization
direct competition from the imports from Mediterranean Partner
Countries (MPCs) which have signed free trade agreements with the
EU
there are 35 EU regions in which fruits and vegetables (in addition to
olives) represent more than 45% of the gross added value of the
regional agricultural sector and these regions are localized essentially
in Southern Europe
income difficulties faced by the agricultural areas specialized in
fruit and vegetables (F&V), in Italy and Spain
lagged response of supply when assets are specific and lack flexibility
(permanent crops, small farms)
overproduction
Growing relevance of the negotiation capability of modern
distribution
7. MPCs
decrease of the total area of cultivated land in corn
more intensive large-scale agriculture
decreased soil quality
undernourished people
food import-dependent regions
8. Hypothesis
Transition in agriculture Imperial networks
Racializzation of Labor flexibility and violence
transformations of rural areas pivoting on these new
inhabitants and reordering of social relations on ethnic
and racial basis, as a consequence of the forms of
regulation concerning migrations movements and of
economic and agriculture transition
Crisis block of turn over or return to agriculture
9. Immigrants in Southern Agriculture
1) mostly irregular immigrants or asylum seekers
waiting for permits;
2) rejected immigrants or immigrants with expired
residence permits – as a consequence of the crisis of
the international asylum system;
3) refugees and legal immigrants doing seasonal work
during their holidays or more recently dismissed by
the industries of the north following the economic
crisis;
4) seasonal or temporary migrants.
10. Migration dynamics in Southern Italy and Spain
transit migration, before moving in the center- North
of the country or abroad,
shift migration, from the Northern regions or cities
transhumant migration across the various regions of
the south of Italy and Spain according to seasonal
harvests and thus to employment opportunities in the
agricultural sector.
circular migration from and to the origin country
long-staying migration settlement
13. Migration Pull factors
cheaper primary goods and housing,
job opportunities in agriculture or underground
economy,
less controls (in the case of overstaying after their visa
have expired – as an effect of the security norms; in
the case of irregular entry or rejected asylum seekers)

Editor's Notes
The need for modernization, the liberalization of the agricultural market and therefore exposure to international competition, and the restraints and pressures upstream and downstream in the production process imply that the only variable able to be adjusted by the farmer is the cost of labor (Morice and Michalon 2008).
