Edition 1

Synopsis (short abstract) Project GCP/GLO/543/USA was prepared as a contribution by USAID to the Monitoring and Analysing Food and Agricultural Policies (MAFAP) programme, a five-year umbrella programme implemented by FAO and supported by multiple donors with the aim of strengthening evidence-based policy-making in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. Its objectives were to achieve the adoption of at least five agricultural policy reforms across countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, and to strengthen the national capacity and commitment of countries in Sub-Saharan Africa to monitor, analyse, advocate for and reform food and agricultural policies. However, following revisions requested by USAID, the total budget for the project was reduced and the remaining funds were used for two activities, described below.

    The State of Food and Agriculture 1995
    Agricultural trade: entering a new era?
    1995

    The theme of food security is prominent throughout this year's edition of The State of Food and Agriculture. Within widely differing situations and developments, the general picture emerging from this report is one of encouraging progress in many areas that directly or indirectly benefit food and agriculture. Indeed, the year 1994-95 has seen a strengthening of world economic recovery after the slowdown of 1990 to 1993; further progress in economic liberalization and reform in many countries; a recovery in international commodity prices that has provided many agricultural exporting economies with the foreign exchange earnings that will, it is hoped, enable them to consolidate the basis for sustained growth. These welcome developments in the global environment, together with a number of important achievements in individual regions and countries, configure what will probably be remembered as a period of opportunity and hope for many countries in the developing world.
