Filled with case studies from within Africa and success stories from developing nations around the world, The New Harvest is a report outlining the policies and institutional changes necessary to promote agricultural innovation across the African continent. Incorporating research from academia, government, NGOs, and private industry, the book suggests multiple ways that individual African countries could work together at the regional level to develop local
knowledge and resources, harness biotechnological innovation and encourage entrepreneurship, increase agricultural output, create markets, improve infrastructure, and expand Africa's role within the global economy.
