“…However, only around 4to 5 percent of Mpondo were Christians when Hunter worked there in the 1930s (Hunter, 1936: 349), whereas 88 percent of Cagubans were Christians when Kuckertz did fieldwork (Kuckertz, 1983/84: 114). Evidence from other parts of Africa indicates that conversion to Christianity co-incides with changes in the nature of co-operative work for example, Worby, 1999;Charsley, 1976;Mayer, 1951;Wilson, et aI., 1952) partly because of the prohibition on beer drinking that often goes with conversion. And in Pondoland , Hunter pointed out that although amalima work parties were 'very extensively used' in more conservative districts (1936: 90), with virtually every homestead having at least once a year, mainly for the first weeding, Christians or 'dressed' people held amalima infrequently, partly to avoid beer-drinking, partly (in Hunter's opinion) because they were ' more industrious' and attempted to maximise production, that is, they were more driven by utilitarian interests (ibid : 91).…”

Recent research on agrari an issues in the Eastern CapeProvince has indicated a number of ways in which rural people have adapted to changing ecological and socio -economic conditions in attempts to maintain household agricultu ral production. One such mechanism is the development of various fo rms of co-ope rative work in order to ove rcome shortages of resource inputs. In parts of the Transkei, co-ope rative work is constructed in tenns of a particular rural ethos and morali ty. , provides an institutional basis for agrarian activities, and has played an important role in allowing households to meet part of their subsistence requirements. Careful measurement ofmaize yields sugges ts that agricultural production is at a considerably higher level than previously thought, at least in better rainfall areas, and it is likely that co-ope rative labour plays an important role in making this possible.
