Agricultural diversification and export promotion in sub-Saharan Africa
/
Delgado, Christopher
Declines in world commodity prices have emphasized the need in Africa for diversification away from a few agricultural exports. Market reforms are not enough. High transfer costs and imperfect factor markets imply that many consumer goods, frequently including food staples, are non-tradables, raising the possi [...]

Why Domestic Food Prices Matter to Growth Strategy in Semi-Open West African Agriculture
/
Delgado, Christopher L.
It is argued that the conventional wisdom that domestic food prices are purely endogenous to the determination of equilibrium real exchange rates ignores structural features of West African economies that make them ‘semi-open’. The features include very high transfer costs from West African ports to producing and consuming points, the need to t [...]

/
Foroutan, Faezeh
One cause of the disappointing performance of the tradable goods sector in sub-Saharan Africa after several years of adjustment and investment of considerable resources is the less-than-exemplary implementation of reform, concludes the author. The author summarizes the experience of ten sub-Saharan countries with trade reform. Trade reform is broad [...]

The European Horticulture Market: Opportunities for Sub-Saharan African Exporters
/
Labaste, Patrick
Trade is an essential driver for sustained economic growth, and growth is necessary for poverty reduction. In Sub-Saharan Africa, where three-fourths of the poor live in rural areas, spurring growth and generating income and employment opportunities is critical for poverty reduction strategies.

Cereals protection and agricultural development strategy in the Sahel
/
Delgado, Christopher L.
The stagnation of Sahelian agriculture under seemingly unchangeable exchange rates has led to calls for supporting growth and food security through protection of cereals. It is argued that this will harm both objectives by ignoring the true comparative advantage of large parts of the region in livestock and other exports to the coast. High cereals [...]
