In the Horn of Africa and the Sahel, increased agriculture production has been unable to meet the demand of the increase in popu
lation for all the following reasons EXCEPT climate factors having limited the increase in agricultural production. governments having limited the incentive for increase by keeping prices low. this region traditionally having supported limited agricultural production. natural resources being unable to support enough of an increase in production. agricultural products failing to reach markets in saleable condition.
governments having limited the incentive for increase by keeping prices low
Explanation:
The Horn of Africa and the Sahel a re regions dominated by arid and semi-arid climate types. This makes these regions very limited when it comes to agricultural production. The climate is not suitable in most of these regions for large scale production, so lot of modifications and investments are needed in order to transform the land. Big problem is also the infrastructure, as it is relatively bad condition, so even what is produced is usually consumed locally because the products can reach the markets in saleable condition. The population growth is quicker than the agricultural growth, so there's a very big problem with malnutrition. The governments are putting lot of effort in this sector, but they are very limited financially, so it is going very slowly.
