Investissement agricole en Afrique : un niveau faible… de nombreuses opportunités
January 12, 2018

Le potentiel agricole Africain présente des opportunités à saisir en termes d’intensification de production et structuration des chaines des chaines de valeurs agricoles. Bien que diversifié (issu de plusieurs sources publiques, privées et étrangères), l’investissement agricole demeure faible. Le basculement vers une agriculture moderne et intensive doit nécessairement passer par l’élaboration d’une politique agricole globale qui prend en considération plusieurs volets (irrigation, utilisation des inputs et organisation des circuits) et aboutit à la fin à une production agricole suffisante capable d’assurer la sécurité alimentaire de la population et à un secteur agricole actif et bien intégré dans l’économie des pays africains.

    Les rivalités entre les puissances semblent acquérir une ampleur inédite en ces temps de crise, se déclinant, plus que jamais, dans le domaine de l’influence.

Cette offensive diplomatique s’inscrit dans un contexte plus large de quête d’une visibilité accrue sur le continent africain. Ce Policy Bri ...

Instinctively, Donald ...

    In the last two decades, the world has experienced two main global crises: the financial crisis of 2008 and the current COVID-19 health crisis. A prima facie comparison reveals at least two apparent common factors: contagion effect and panic. */ - Contagion effect: in the financial crisis, the collapse of Lehman Brothers had a deep impact on foreign financial systems exposed to the U.S. subprime market. Toxic assets (non-performing subprime mortgages) spread throughout the banking ...
