text: production of basic crops by economic units in the rural social sector, covering an average annual area of 475,500 hectares in the period 1983-1986. Financing 157. The financing of production has been a fundamental part of the strategy for developing the social sector. The main institutions providing finance for the rural social sector are the Rural Credit Bank and its trustees (Trustee Bank for Irrigation Districts, Trustee Bank for Loans to Irrigated and Non-irrigated Areas, Fxond for Rural Infrastructural Works) and the funds set up for agriculture and the National Fisheries and Harbours Bank. 158. The National Rural Credit Bank operates mainly with producers in the social sector, to which each year it channels roughly 85% of its resources. Between 1983 and 1986 it assisted with loans roughly 6.5 million hectares on average per annum, of which 5.7 million hectares were communally owned. 159. The Trustee Bank for Works of Rural Infrastructure constructs rural development works in areas of irrigated and rain-fed agriculture together with works of social benefit to make the loan programmes viable. In the period 1983-1986, of the total of its resources put to use, 23.6% were allocated to the development of non-irrigated areas, 38.7% to the development of irrigated areas, 16.8% to social welfare services and 21.5% to stockraising infrastructure. 160. The National Fisheries and Harbours Bank allotted some 65 per cent of its financing to co-operatives in the period 1983-1986. 161. July 1987 saw the launching of the integrated Financial and Insurance Programme for the Countryside, aimed at guaranteeing the food supply and raising the standard of living of the peasants by increasing the funds channelled into agriculture, stock-raising and agro-industry by activating insurance schemes and reducing interest rates on repair loans, which will benefit the rural sector.
