Mechanizing African Agriculture
2019Agricultural technologies that reduce the need for intensive manual labour make it possible for farmers to cultivate more land more effectively. This can increase both incomes and total food production, with significant benefits to farming households and communities in food-insecure regions.

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 2013
In sub-Sahara African (SSA) countries like Nigeria, anecdotal evidence indicates that the cost of manual farming activities has been rising, with potential causes including the growing urban sector, as well as rural non-farm economies (Oseni and Winters 2009) which often raises rural farming wages (Reardon et al. 2000).

Agricultural and Forestry Mechanization
2011Wood biomass for energy production, used by 50% of the world’s population, represents an important alternative to other non-renewable energy sources even in industrialized countries. The correctly planned management of wood biomass production could make it a valid alternative energy solution to traditional fossil fuels, since it is a local and widely ...
