Human factors in relation to panning for conservation and production

This paper is "based on a talk given to the second "Monze Conservation Course' arranged by the Education Committee of the Northern Rhodesia Natural Resources Board in November 1960. A number of the points mentioned here under cropped up in the course of the discussion which followed the paper, and I am very grateful to the participants in that course for drawing attention to and indicating the importance of these matters. In considering Human Factors in relation to planning for conservation and production, whilst the main consideration must be for those on whose behalf the plans are being made - I would hate to be the originator of the word 'planee’ - some thought must also be given to the human element on the side of the planners, and this is done towards the end of the paper. But first let us consider the importance of man in the conservation and production picture.
