Johnson–Crosbie Committee Report (1930)
JOHNSON–CROSBIE COMMITTEE REPORT (1930)
A survey in Palestine.
The Johnson–Crosbie committee collected data from 25,573 Palestinian Arab families in 104 villages. The report calculated that Arab peasant debt per family averaged 27 Palestinian pounds, the equivalent of a year's income. It also found that the average cultivator held a mere 56 dunums (14 acres; 6 ha) whereas 75 dunums (18.5 acres; 7.5 ha) were required for basic economic maintenance. The survey was conducted by William Johnson and Robert Crosbie, officials in the British administration in Palestine.
