Recent article from The Banker magazine makes the well-worn points that opportunities abound in African agricultural investment, now increasingly driven by domestic and regional demand, as opposed to European or Asian offtake. Rabo's Marttin is quoted on the importance of focusing finance on supply chains, and the article argues that better financing is helping the sector. But there is still a long way to go. Our NEAFSEEP programme in Kenya seeks to address precisely this gap in the market.
