DocumentProgrammingSudan: Country Programming Framework for the Republic of Sudan: CPF (2012-2016) 2014
Also available in:
No results found.Sudan, with an area of 178 million square miles and 32 million people, is an agriculture-‐based economy. Agriculture underpins food security and rural development in the country: it contributes 30% to the GDP, employs 48% of the labour force, supplies the bulk of basic food for consumers, contributes over 80% of non-‐petroleum export revenues and provides subsistence and other incomes to the bulk of the population. The strong forward and backward linkages within the rural sector and with other sectors of the economy provide added stimulus for growth and income generation. Thus, significant progress in promoting economic growth, reducing poverty and enhancing food security in Sudan cannot be achieved without developing more fully the potential human and productive capacity of the agricultural sector. -
