International markets for African agricultural exports
With most economies in sub Saharan Africa remaining heavily dependent on agriculture, the future performance of agricultural exports will be a key determinant of economic growth prospects in the region. This is especially true in an era of liberal trade policy, particularly taking account of the small base from which manufacturing growth and export diversification must take place. International markets for African agricultural exports reviews recent trends and prospects for agricultural exports. The market outlook for traditional and non-traditional exports are considered as well as the factors that will govern their performance, and the strategic issues which relate to their trade. This examination of the current situation will be of use to agricultural policy makers in African countries and development agencies. The booklet's publication is a timely complement to the current debate on the performance of African agriculture - post-structural adjustment.
