Fulfilling the promise of African agriculture
Yet this barely scrapes the surface of Africa’s promise. Only 6 per cent of cultivated land is irrigated in Africa, compared with 37 per cent in Asia, for example. Africa also has the largest share of uncultivated land with rain-fed crop potential in the world. In addition, African farmers use substantially less fertilizer per hectare than counterparts in East Asia and the Pacific.

Change Africa from within
deux ans, lorsque l’escalade mondiale des prix a provoqué des pénuries alimentaires dans de nombreux pays d’Afrique et d’Asie. La flambée des prix alimentaires a plongé dans une misère encore plus noire les pauvres, déjà aux prises avec mille difficultés pour satisfaire leurs besoins les plus élémentaires. Elle a laissé dans son sillage la crise financière mondiale, qui les a à nouveau pénalisés le plus durement. L’agriculture est le principal employeur, créateur d’emplois et exportateur de la plupart des pays en développement. D’un point de vue historique, elle est le moteur économique de nombreux pays, générant une croissance qui s’est avérée au moins deux fois plus efficace que celle d’autres secteurs pour la réduction de la pauvreté. Les investissements dans le développement agricole et rural sont par conséquent essentiels pour la sécurité alimentaire et un développement économique durable.
