The Significance of Subsistence Farming in Georgia as an Economic and Social Buffer
The aim of this contribution is to show what official data are available and what statements can be made concerning the importance of subsistence farming in Georgia. Combining the official figures with observations of the Georgian situation provided insight to the significance of subsistence farming for the Georgian society. It is obvious that subsistence farming plays an important role when considering Georgia's economic situation. Trying to get hold of this importance in figures requires a definition of subsistence farming and a comparison of this definition with the categories used in the Georgian statistics.
