Book Overview of the fertilizer supply chain and market structure in Africa  A cross country assessment

Download or read book Overview of the fertilizer supply chain and market structure in Africa A cross country assessment written by Hernandez, Manuel A. and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2018-09-06 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agriculture continues to play an important role in African economies. According to the African Development Bank, agricultural activities comprise around 15 percent of the continent’s gross domestic product (GDP) and agricultural employment represents around 58 percent of total employment in Sub-Saharan Africa. The region’s population is expected to double to 2 billion people by 2050. Along with expected income growth, the population increase will lead to a substantial rise in food requirements. To meet food demand, FAO estimates that agricultural production would have to increase 112 percent between 2013 and 2050. Meeting this demand will not be easy, as agricultural productivity in SSA remains low and shows slow growth. The vast majority of African smallholder farmers produce low-yield food crops using a minimal set of inputs. Inadequate access to improved inputs such as fertilizers presents a major constraint for smallholders. In the region, more nutrients are removed with harvested crops than are applied with fertilizer or manure, resulting in unsustainable soil nutrient depletion. Improved fertilizer use will help to counteract this trend while substantially improving food security.

Book Promoting competition in the fertilizer industry in Africa  A global and local approach

Download or read book Promoting competition in the fertilizer industry in Africa A global and local approach written by Hernandez, Manuel A. and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the central role that agriculture plays in the rural economy of Africa, several countries have implemented supply– and demand-driven policies and programs to promote sustainable fertilizer use, with mixed results. However, not much has been said about the market structure or competitive behavior along the supply chain in the highly concentrated fertilizer industry, nor about how this affects fertilizer uptake in the region. Globally, the industry has only a few producers, and African countries are highly and increasingly dependent on imported fertilizer. Locally, fertilizer distribution channels are also characterized by a limited number of market actors, often with a poor dealer network.
