APPENDIX. extremely “hardy to adverse conditions of growth. Attempts to introduce new varieties of better strain or known to produce bigger nuts have not altogether been successful, the new trees being decidedly less resistant to local conditions and to harsh treatment; it is anticipated however that by natural cross-breeding the Seychelles strain of smallish nuts will eventually be improved and made to produce bigger nuts. (4) GOVERNMENT CONTROL OF MARKETING. (Note by the Director of Agricultural Economics and Marketing, South Africa—T.C.(C)Ag.19.) A. LocanL MARKETING. The Union Government Division of Agricultural Economics and Marketing investigates the demands of the market, market tendencies, marketing systems and methods, marketing costs, and issues market advice and reports. Some of the questions that arise in connection with local and overseas marketing relate to: —- Standardisation and grading. Transportation. Storage. Services and agencies. Middlemen’s functions. Credit demands and facilities. Co-operation (Organisation, Registration, and Inspection of Co-operative Societies). Although there is no specific control of marketing, except in the case of municipal markets, these services tend to bring about more economicaily efficient marketing. Standardisation, Grading and Inspection is at present only compulsory for exports, and the various state functions in this respect are to be found in the various acts mentioned in the Overseas Trade Section* of this memorandum. The following Acts regulate local marketing: — (i) Public Auctions and Transactions in Livestock and Produce Act (No. 22 of 1925). An Act to regulate certain transactions in and the sale by auction of livestock and agricultural produce. First published in Government Gazette Extr. No. 1493 of 27th July, 1925. Co-operative Societies Acts No. 28 of 1922 and No. 38 of 1925. To provide for the formation, registration and management of co-operative agricultural societies with unlimited liability, co-operative agricultural companies with limited liability and co-operative trade societies with limited liability. Act 38 of 1925. This Act amends Act 28/1922 in making provision for compulsory co-operation. ni) Dairy Industry Act (No. 16 of 1918) as amended by Act No. 14 of 1926.
