Presenting case studies, macro-level simulations, and relevant surveys, it analyzes food crops and agri-food policy challenges and their implications in various African countries. In addition, it discusses how current African agri-food policies could be improved to achieve the continental vision of sustainable development in light of the African Union's Agenda 2063. The respective contributions address topics such as drivers of technical efficiency among smallholder maize farmers; farm management practices; agri-food infrastructure policies; food security; agricultural growth; and financing for and investment in agricultural production. Accordingly, the book appeals to scholars of economics and agricultural studies and to anyone interested in the agricultural transformation of Africa. . 001453869 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed January 12, 2023). 001453869 650_0 $$aAgriculture and state$$zAfrica. 001453869 650_0 $$aSustainable agriculture$$zAfrica. 001453869 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001453869 7001_ $$aOdularu, Gbadebo O.
