|a A comparative study between Asian agricultural development during the Green Revolution in food production and the current problematic agricultural situation in sub-Saharan Africa is presented. Case studies of eight African (viz. Ghana, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi, Nigeria, Uganda and Zambia) and seven Asian (Japan, Taiwan, Korea Republic, the Philippines, Indonesia, India and Bangladesh) countries (focusing on the early part of the Green Revolution) are also presented. A causal and explanatory model of Asian green revolutions is presented, as well as a discussion on why this phenomenon occurred in Asia and not in Africa. This book will be of significant interest to researchers on agricultural economics, rural sociology and development studies.
