It is essential to go beyond a ‘development bureaucracy’ and a state-based approach to rural transformation, such as the one that often dominates policy debate in African government circles, organizations like the African Union and the UN, and donor agencies.African dynamics ;Volume 13.Agricultural productivityAfricaFood securityAfricaFood consumptionAfricaAgricultureAfricaElectronic books.Agricultural productivityFood securityFood consumptionAgriculture338.1/6096Akinyoade AkinyinkaAkanbi Sheu-UsmanMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910467154203321Digging deeper2046138UNINA
