@B4FA: Nigeria: Jonathan partners world leaders, industrialists on GM foods, by B4FA Media Fellow Mohammed Kandi http://t.co/2G4cLiL76h
UN World Food Day is just around the corner, and one of our fellows has written a thoughtful article on the World Food Prize and its implications for African agriculture.
SciDev.net reports on two important topics this week: closer ties between Argentina and Africa as well as theimportance of research and skills for food security post-2015.
Africa Report notes that the uptake of new technology for agriculture has been a slow process in Africa, thoughfield trials for GM cowpea are now active in Ghana.
We hope you benefit from this week’s Week in Review – as always, please send any comments or additional articles to [email protected]
NB: We will take a 1 week hiatus and will return with a fresh Week in Review on Tuesday, 8 October.
