Dairy marketing and development in Africa.

1992

Shapiro K. | Jesse E. | Foltz J.

This paper provides an overview of marketing factors that currently influence the development of the dairy sectors of sub-Saharan Africa. It is structured around eight hypotheses relating to opportunities for and constraints to dairy development. On balance, the authors are optimistic about the prospects for sustained growth in African dairying, but not without some changes in current marketing, pricing and institutional practices. Changes in the world dairy situation could result in incentives to stimulate domestic milk production to meet increasing demand for dairy products in Africa.
