This year, under the leadership of H.E. President Alassane Ouattara and the theme of “Accelerating Africa’s Path to Prosperity: Growing Inclusive Economies and Jobs through Agriculture”, the African Green Revolution Forum (AGRF) 2017 is shaping up as a premier platform to showcase ongoing evolution in Africa’s agricultural transformation schedule and to scale up the political, policy, and financial commitments needed to achieve the Malabo Declaration and the world development schedule around the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Following the launch of the landmark annual Africa Agriculture Status Statement (ASSR) at the AGRF taking place in Cote d’Ivoire from 4-8 September 2017, the major conclusion centres around the power of entrepreneurs and the free market in driving Africa’s economic increase from food production. This is owing to the fact that a lot of businesses are waking up to opportunities of a rapidly growing food market in Africa that may be worth additional than $1 trillion each year by 2030 to substitute imports with high price food made in Africa.

The ECOWAS Bank for Investment and Improvment(EBID) says it would continue to focus efforts on providing support to private and public sector initiatives to grow the economies and create jobs in the sub-region.
Mr Bashir Ifo, EBID President, said everything would be done to lift the people out of poverty and transform their economic situation.
Evidence of this, he said could be seen from the bank’s assistance in areas of infrastructure, agriculture and private sector development.
