Agricultural mechanization in Africa south of the Sahara — especially for
small farms and businesses — requires a new paradigm to meet the needs of
the continent’s evolving farming systems. Can Asia, with its recent success
in adopting mechanization, offer a model for Africa? An Evolving Paradigm
of Agricultural Mechanization Development analyzes the experiences of eight
Asian and five African countries. The authors explore crucial government
roles in boosting and supporting mechanization, from import policies to
promotion policies to public good policies.
Join us to hear from the authors and discussants on the book’s
recommendations and insights, which are beneficial to national policymakers
and the development community, who can adapt this knowledge to local
contexts and use it as a foundation for further research.
