The opportunities for agricultural development are plentiful, due to the country’s abundant fertile land, natural resources and high growth potential. At her IFPRI presentation, Dr. Ogwaro will outline a bold vision for sustainable agricultural growth, including concrete steps to address systemic issues and a plan to increase development capacity.
