This collection of papers offers technical analyses, policy recommendations and an overview of success stories to date. Each carefully selected paper provides valuable insights for improved policy making and defines relevant strategic priorities on Africa's sustainable transformation process, which is in line with the international development agenda. Although agriculture remains the main source of income for Africa's population, the sector is rain-fed subjecting it to the vagaries of weather and climate change. This volume demonstrates the rationale of developing a competitive, inclusive and sustainable agribusiness sector for Africa's food security and structural transformation. From the impact of Bioenergy crop adoption and Drought Index Insurance to Agro-Industrialization, this volume is important reading for individual researchers, academic associations and professional bodies interested in African agricultural development. 000890130 650_0 $$aSustainable agriculture$$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan$$vCongresses. 000890130 650_0 $$aAgricultural productivity$$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan$$vCongresses. 000890130 650_0 $$aResilience (Ecology)$$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan$$vCongresses. 000890130 650_0 $$aIndustrial organization. 000890130 650_0 $$aDevelopment economics. 000890130 650_0 $$aEconomic policy. 000890130 650_0 $$aAgriculture$$xEconomic aspects. 000890130 650_0 $$aEnvironmental economics. 000890130 7000_ $$aAbebe Shimeles,$$eeditor. 000890130 7001_ $$aVerdier-Chouchane, Audrey,$$d1973-$$eeditor. 000890130 7001_ $$aBoly, Amadou,$$eeditor. 000890130 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9783319762210 000890130 852__ $$bebk 000890130 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-76222-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000890130 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:890130$$pGLOBAL_SET 000890130 980__ $$aEBOOK 000890130 980__ $$aBIB 000890130 982__ $$aEbook 000890130 983__ $$aOnline 000890130 994__ $$a92$$bISE
