Sammanfattning: | The book is organized into three major parts. Part I addresses challenges and contributions
in African agricultural development, and presents available evidence to demonstrate
the impact of R&D investment and discusses the role of science and technology in
the transformation of African agriculture. Part II, Results of Impact Assessment in Eastern
and Southern Africa, is a collection of impact study results from the region. These case studies
deal with a wide range of enterprises including food crops, cash crops, livestock, floriculture
and forestry products. Part III provides an overview of methodologies and best practices
for conducting similar studies. The contents of the book emanate from individual and
collaborative research by the authors through various research programmes over the past
decades.
This book addresses African agricultural development problems, and it is aimed at researchers,
policy makers, policy advisors and donors. It can be used as a primary or complementary
textbook in postgraduate courses in agricultural development, agricultural economics, research
management, crop science and agronomy. It will also be valuable for planners and donors interested
in African agricultural development. |
