COVID –19: Hiking food prices across Africa; Gambia moves to reverse the trend (Modern Ghana) 

April 10, 2020


Modern Ghana published an article on the shocking rapid increase in food prices over a number of weeks. The 2020 Global Food Policy Report revealed that lack of infrastructure and skills is holding back the development of food supply chains in low-income Africa and Asia, especially where the potential is greatest: in small towns and intermediate cities near rural farmlands. The Report indicated that “inclusive food systems can help break the intergenerational cycle of poverty, hunger, and malnutrition.” Republished in News Africa.
