Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Le commerce est essentiel à la croissance économique et la réduction de la pauvreté. En Afrique subsaharienne, où les trois quarts de la population vit en milieu rural, promouvoir une croissance soutenue génératrice de revenus et d'emplois est d'une importance capitale pour les stratégies de réduction de la pauvreté. Or, de nombreuses économies Africaines continuent à dépendre lourdement de la production et des exportations de produits agricoles traditionnels (café, cacao, coton), dont les prix réels n'ont cessé de diminuer au cours des trois dernières décennies. Ceci a entraîné une diminution continue de la part de l'Afrique subsaharienne dans le commerce mondial. De ce fait, la diversification de l'agriculture vers des produits agricoles à forte valeur ajoutée et la promotion des exportations non-traditionnelles apparaissent aujourd'hui comme une priorité pour la plupart des pays du continent. Certains pays africains ont enregistré des succès notables en diversifiant leurs exportations agricoles vers des produits non-traditionnels, tels que les fleurs coupées, les fruits et légumes frais et certains produits transformés: c'est le cas notamment du Kenya, de l'Afrique du Sud, de l'Ouganda, de la Côte d'Ivoire, du Sénégal ou encore du Zimbabwe. Pour capitaliser l'expérience des pays de la région, accroître les interventions dans ce domaine et assister d'autres pays d'Afrique subsaharienne, la Banque mondiale a lancé une série d'études sur le thème de la facilitation du commerce agricole et du développement des exportations agricoles non-traditionnelles en Afrique subsaharienne. Ce rapport présente une analyse approfondie de la structure actuelle, ainsi que des dynamiques, du marché européen des fleurs et des produits horticoles frais, dans le but d'aider les pays clients, les acteurs du secteur et les partenaires en développement à mieux connaître ces marchés et à évaluer les perspectives et opportunités qu'ils offrent aux pays d'Afrique subsaharienne.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Value chain-based approaches offer tremendous scope for market-based improvements in production, productivity, rural economy diversification, and household incomes, but are often covered by literature that is too conceptual or heavily focused on analysis. This has created a gap in the information available to planners, practitioners, and value chain participants. Furthermore, few references are available on how these approaches can be applied specifically to developing agriculture in Africa. 'Building Competitiveness in Africa's Agriculture: A Guide to Value Chain Concepts and Applications' describes practical implementation approaches and illustrates them with scores of real African agribusiness case studies. Using these examples, the 'Guide' presents a range of concepts, analytical tools, and methodologies centered on the value chain that can be used to design, implement, and evaluate agricultural and agribusiness development initiatives. It stresses principles of market focus, collaboration, information sharing, and innovation. The 'Guide' begins by examining core concepts and issues related to value chains. A brief literature review then focuses on five topics of particular relevance to African agricultural value chains. These topics address challenges faced by value chain participants and practitioners that resonate through the many cases described in the book. The core of the book presents methodological tools and approaches that blend important value chain concepts with the topics and with sound business principles. The tools and case studies have been selected for their usefulness in supporting market-driven, private-sector initiatives to improve value chains. The 'Guide' offers 13 implementation approaches, presented within the implementation cycle of a value chain program, followed by descriptions of actual cases. Roughly 60 percent of the examples are from Africa, while the rest come from Europe, Latin America, and Asia. The 'Guide' offers useful guidance to businesspeople, policy makers, representatives of farmer or trade organizations, and others who are engaged in agro-enterprise and agribusiness development. These readers will learn how to use value chain approaches in ways that can contribute to sound operational decisions, improved market linkage, and better results for enterprise and industry development.…
