  • Chapter 3. Crop-Environment Interactions in Sub-Saharan Africa
    Environmental Policy Update 2012 Environmental Policy Update 2012: Development Strategies and Environmental Policy in East Africa Chapter 3. Crop-Environment Interactions in Sub-Saharan Africa Nicholas J. Papanastassiou 1 Environmental Policy Update 2012: Crop-Environment Interactions in Sub-Saharan Africa By Nicholas J. Papanastassiou Executive Summary Over 200 million people throughout Africa are chronically hungry or malnourished. Low crop yields throughout the continent are a key contributing factor: cereal yields in Africa are 40% below that of the developing world average. This low productivity is caused in part by environmental constraints. Overcoming constraints and ameliorating negative environmental effects associated with crop production is a critical step in Africa’s development. The research question addressed by this chapter is: What are the critical resource requirements and impacts of major crop systems in Sub-Saharan Africa, and what known mitigation and adaptation strategies are available to address them? Based upon an in-depth literature review of peer-reviewed articles, papers, and reports from major agricultural research organizations and scientists, this chapter presents an overview of crop-environment interactions for maize, legumes, and sweet potatoes/yams. Crops in Africa face poor soil fertility as a common pre-harvest constraint. This has caused yield reductions of up to 48% in maize in Tanzania, over 50% for yams in Nigeria, and losses of up to 75% in legumes. Many farmers, especially those growing legumes and yams, do not have access to fertilizers to overcome this. Many crops also face disease infection during production: downy mildew causes up to 80% yield losses in maize, leaf spot causes up to 60% yield losses in legumes, and the sweet potato feathery mottle virus infects up to 100% of sweet potatoes.
