Endorsed in 2003 by African heads of state and government, the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme (CAADP) is a continentwide framework for accelerating growth and progress toward poverty reduction and food and nutrition security through an agricultureled growth strategy. Beginning in 2006, the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) hosted and incubated three programs that provide policy research and capacitystrengthening support to guide the planning and implementation of CAADP. The three programs migrated to AKADEMIYA2063 in July 2020.

Le rapport s’articule autour de six chapitres. Après une description générale au chapitre 1, vient le chapitre 2 consacré à la performance commerciale de l’Afrique sur les marchés mondiaux. Les chapitres 3 et 4 portent respectivement sur la mesure de l’intégration commerciale régionale et la compétitivité des chaînes de valeur agricoles en Afrique. Au chapitre 5, les auteurs se penchent sur le thème principal du rapport de 2019, à savoir les effets que les bouleversements en cours dans le système commercial mondial pourraient avoir sur les économies africaines.

This report highlights achievements made in 2018 and the first half of 2019 by IFPRI and its partners in support of the CAADP implementation agenda through ReSAKSS, the AGRODEP Modeling Consortium, and the MaMo Panel.

In the 2017 BR Report, 22 performance categories and 43 indicators were defined for the seven thematic areas of performance to evaluate country performance in achieving agricultural growth and transformation goals in Africa. Of the 55-member states, 47 submitted their validated national reports to their respective Regional Economic Communities (RECs), including five EAC partner states: Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Uganda. The final scorecard was prepared by the AUC and NPCA, with support from the RECs and technical partners.
