Ataman Aksoy.During the 1990's, SSA countries initiated agricultural policy reforms to increase producer incentives and increase growth. Yet, agricultural growth rates after the reforms have been uneven. This has been attributed to lack of supporting infrastructure or the inability to respond to incentives by the smallholders. Based on ten studies, this volume provides a different framework to interpret the outcomes. First, it attributes the success of the reforms to the degree of consensus around the reform programs, which in turn, creates the institutions that can accommodate unexpected shocks.Directions in development (Washington, D.C.).Trade.Agriculture and stateAfrica, Sub-SaharanAgricultural productivityAfrica, Sub-SaharanCase studiesAgricultural development projectsAfrica, Sub-SaharanCase studiesElectronic books.Agriculture and stateAgricultural productivityAgricultural development projects338.1867Aksoy M.
