Agriculture is central to emerging market economies. In Africa it accounts for as much as 65 percent of employment and 32 percent of output. Globally, two-thirds of the world’s poor - some 750 million people - work in rural areas. But as economies...

Agriculture is central to emerging
market economies. In Africa it accounts for as much as 65
percent of employment and 32 percent of output. Globally,
two-thirds of the world’s poor - some 750 million people -
work in rural areas. But as economies expand and production
shifts to manufacturing and services, agriculture’s share of
employment and gross domestic product (GDP) decreases. At
the same time, the broader agribusiness industry - business
activities performed from farm to fork - is playing a more
important role in growth and development. In part I, the
emphasis is on improved land rights, better regulation of
input and output markets, and better access to seeds and
fertilizer that are all critical to this transition. |
