Now there is a new one: to offer new homes and new economic opportunities for Europes surplus population. There is today less land settlement than in the past. The countries where such settlement would naturally occur. lack the capital resources to undertake it by themselves and too many of them embark upon industrialization neglecting food production. Also. the development of agriculture requires more investment and technical guidance today than ever before and these are difficult to obtain for new immigrant settlements. Furthermore. improved living conditions in towns make settlement in rural regions relatively less attractive. This fact has contributed to rural exodus in many countries. including our own.
