Agricultural development in a changing climate in Zambia

Mehr zum Buch

Shows that despite abundant water and land resources, Zambia's agricultural sector is underdeveloped and has yet to achieve food security. Analyses the agricultural sector in Zambia under changing climatic and economic conditions, asking how the situation in this sector evolved and which policies and measures could turn it into a positive development. By giving answers to these questions, focuses not only on taking stock of results (what), but also on the way things can be done (how), taking into account past actions and future challenges. Focuses on smallholders and emergent farmers, because they make up the vast majority of farmers in Zambia and at the same time are the poorest and the least resilient groups in society
