Agriculture is the only economic sector among current NEPAD priorities which otherwise range from Peace and Security as well as Democracy and political governance to Human Resources, Health and Culture. Emphasising self-reliance, African Heads of State and Government have set an ambitious target of 7 percent annual growth rate in GDP over the next 20 years.
