| description |
Agricultural investments made by
developing countries and multilateral development banks
(MDBs) have declined in recent decades. This decline is
associated with a slowdown in the growth of agriculture
productivity. Most development institutions have recognized
the damage caused by this past neglect, in part evident in
rising food prices, and renewed attention to agriculture and
agribusiness is emerging. But this renewed interest will
need to deliver results, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa,
where the MDBs have had the least success but where the
needs and opportunities are enormous. This paper synthesizes
recent work by the independent evaluation agency members of
the Evaluation Cooperation Group (ECG) and incorporates
lessons from related research by MDBs and from the academic
literature on agriculture and agribusiness. The objectives
of the paper, in addition to distilling evaluative lessons
for agriculture and agribusiness, are to examine the key
constraints on the sector and to provide evaluators,
operational staff, and policy makers with an evaluative
perspective on interventions in countries at different
stages of development. |
