Abstract: Abstract In the quest for economic development in developing nations, and in particular sub-Saharan Africa, there is often great emphasis placed on the rural areas and especially on farmers within those rural areas. Such farmers, after all, both form the bulk of the population and also often are the poorest segments of the population. Many believe that reform in the agricultural sector could be a stepping stone to the broader economic development of such nations.
