state the conditions that led agriculture development
Answers
Answer:139. Sustained and accelerated development of agriculture is the key to economic development and poverty reduction in the LDCs. The preceeding sections shown that they have considerable agricultural potential, but that it has not been realized for a number of reasons, including structural and technological constraints, inappropriate domestic policies and an unfavourable external economic environment. As a result, the growth of these economies has been slow, undernourishment has been increasing and the marginalization of these countries in the global economy has continued.
140. The challenges facing LDCs are numerous enough to strain their capacity to design and implement effective policies and institutions for agriculture. However, development is a cumulative process, with success in one area opening up opportunities in others. The focus of this section is on the identification of measures to alleviate the supply-side constraints, and to improve agricultural productivity and competitiveness in the framework of a strategy that is poverty-alleviating, balanced, sustainable and based on comparative advantage. The analysis draws on FAO's field experience, including its policy assistance work in the LDCs, together with new policy approaches for accelerated agricultural development based on the past 30 years of development experience.
