Agricultural productivity: Developments, determinants and impacts

The level and growth of agricultural productivity are critical both to the well-being of the population of the least developed countries (LDCs) and to the structural transformation of their economies. They are major determinants of poverty and of the income gap that separates them from other developing countries (ODCs) and developed countries, and play an essential role in the processes of rural structural transformation and development and in strengthening the rural non-farm economy (RNFE).
