Robert R. Deuson and John C. Day

Agricultural Economics, 1990, vol. 4, issue 3-4, 255-266

Abstract: Dryland agriculture in the Sahel must become more productive if human conditions in the region are to improve. Constraints impeding increased productivity are examined. The harsh natural environment of the Sahel means that technologies, institutions and economic policies must be tailored to meet the special challenges of that environment.
