Agriculture
in Africa has experienced an average of 4 per cent annual Gross Domestic
Product (GDP) growth in the last 10 years far above what obtained in the
previous decades.
The
Technical Adviser and Team Leader of the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture
Development Programme (CAADP) , Mr. Keizire Boaz made this clarification at
the just concluded two-day CAADP partnership platform business meeting in
Abuja.
“Over
the last decade, through the instrumentality of CAADP, African agriculture and
food security concerns remain high on the policy agenda at national, regional,
continental and global levels. This includes development partners, Civil
Society, Regional Economic Communities (RECs), farmers and the private sector,”
Boaz said.
He
explained that the performance of African agriculture has been encouraging with
annual GDP growth, and stressed that it is absolutely necessary to sustain the
momentum of such positive change and development taking place in
Africa well into the next decade.
Stakeholders
in the implementation of CAADP framework, NaijaAgroNet confirmed gave their progress
report, highlighting lessons learnt, prospects, challenges and future plan,
especially for 2014 which the African leaders at their 19th ordinary session in
Ethiopia last year declared as the Year of Agriculture and Food Security in
Africa.
It
also learnt that the year will mark ten years since the adoption of CAADP,
which is an African Union initiative to accelerate agricultural growth, improve
food security and strengthening the resilience of the environment in Africa.
