Description

This book looks into selected five largest African economies (Nigeria, South Africa, Egypt, Algeria and Angola) to find out food imports (percentage of merchandise imports) and investigates the inherent food insecurity of the inhabitants in these areas. In answer to this problem, the author proffers recommendations that include priority attention to agricultural sector, promoting domestic production of staple foods through unconventional agricultural production – a community-based agricultural participatory framework, and time-bound food-imports regulation strategies. Supported by facts, statistics and data, this short-book is a compelling read for anyone interested in African economies.
