actual numbers of producers involved were very small.
Eggplant production was still important in the agrarian
economy of sharecroppers and thus the regional economy as a
whole, but it was less important than tomato exports.
All classes most commonly exported 50-54% of their crop but
the average portion of exports between the different classes
was variable with farming-shepherds exporting 38% on average,
sharecroppers 27%, cash tenants 21%, smallholders 19% and
farming-landlords 14%. Unlike the case of tomato exports,
exportation of 75% or more of their individual crop was not
common. Only 13% of farming-shepherd producers (the real
number is very small), 4% of sharecroppers and 3% of cash
tenants exported three-quarters of their crop or more. No
smallholders or farming-landlords exported such a high
portion of their crop.
The remainder of the data on vegetable crop production show
that 94% of those peasant farmers who produced courgettes,
90% of those who produced cucumbers, 91% of those who
produced broad beans, 97% of those who produced sweet corn,
86% of those who produced hot peppers, 96% of those who
produced beans, 78% of those who produced melons and 56% of
those who produced sweet peppers exported none of their
produce (see Tables 7-13 and 15 in the Appendix 3). The
export market quite clearly does not play a significant role
in the production of these vegetables. In fact, the majority
of these vegetable items are produced in relatively small
quantities. However, two exceptions to this statement should
