African agriculture needs to have an appropriate technology- transfer partnership with developed countries which facilitates economic growth by raising yields and incomes and at the same time satisfies food security at the household level, without compromising the sustainability of its biodiversity or the trade and new market opportunities that exist for its unique products. Linked to that of course is the economic and entrepreneurial character which African agriculture needs to take on and which has been latent in the past. There's a world of opportunity when you think of the combination of our rich biodiversity and new technologies. With the right minds thinking about things and coming together, I think it's a positive outlook. Our natural resources, in relation to the people we have to feed, have potential, but one needs to harness that capacity and negotiate that niche for the continent.
