Has the Maputo Declaration Made a Difference? - Looking at the past ten years of Sub-Saharan agriculture within the CAADP
(2015) NEKH01 20151Department of Economics
- Abstract
- The Maputo Declaration was launched in 2003 as a response to the stagnation of African agriculture. The signatories agreed that 10% of public expenditure should be spent on agriculture in an effort to increase agricultural productivity. This paper examines to what degree the goal of the Maputo declaration has been reached. Little to no evidence was found for a direct positive impact on agricultural productivity stemming from the Maputo Declaration.
