Agriculture in the rural-urban continuum: a CGIAR research perspective النص الكامل
2015
Drechsel, Pay | Keraita, Bernard N.
Thirsty and hungry cities are posing significant challenges for the urban-rural interface ranging from food security to inter-sectoral water allocation. Not only is the supply of resources to urban centres a growing challenge in low-income countries, but even more is the urban return flow, as investments in waste management and sanitation, ie the ‘ultimate food waste’, are not able to keep pace with population growth. And where polluted water is used in irrigation to feed the cities, food safety is becoming a crucial component of food security. Most affected by resource competition and pollution are the urban and peri-urban farming systems which are often driven by the informal sector. Urban waste is not only a challenge but also offers opportunities. It is in this interface between agriculture and sanitation where the CGIAR operates through its research programme on Water, Land and Ecosystems (WLE), addressing both the challenges and opportunities of urbanisation: by exploring novel perspectives and solutions to respond to changing population dynamics, resource demands, centralised water and nutrient flows, and ecosystem services under pressure.

Getting markets right in Ethiopia: issues and challenge
2005
Eleni Z. Gebremadhin
Ethiopian agricultural markets face challenges despite extensive reforms, which have not yielded expected impacts in growth and poverty alleviation. A concerted focus on getting markets right is critical after reform. Market development is a long-term agenda, requiring a progressive and integrative perspective that addresses the 3 I's: Institutions, Infrastructure, and Incentives. There is an important role for the stage in all of these dimensions, in supporting and facilitating the functional of the private sector.

Commodity exchanges: initial conditions and potential benefits
2005
Ian Goggin
An agricultural commodity exchange is based on a free market system and facilitates trade between farmers and buyers in agricultural goods and provides daily prices of farm produce. It has the potential to transform the Ethiopian agricultural market as it has done in other Sub-Saharan African countries like Zimbabwe. The benefits for the agricultural sector include improved market access and communication, increased competition, and ultimately more efficient and cost-effective markets. Moreover, a successful commodity exchange also allows for all sectors to participate and can thus increase the economic productivity of the country.
