The agriculture sector represents Africa’s greatest opportunity to drive inclusive, sustainable
growth, and one of the few sectors with the potential to lift millions out of poverty and forever change
the continent’s path to development.
But in order to achieve this, there must be a deliberate widespread shift from basic subsistence agriculture that is prevalent on the continent to more productive farming business operations that leverage functions in information and communications technology (ICT), processing, manufacturing and industry.
This report from the Tony Elumelu Foundation outlines the potential in the agricultural sector, showcases some of the agricultural entrepreneurs in the Foundation and presents survey results from agricultural entrepreneurs from 28 African Countries.
