Ethiopia bets on agriculture for food sovereignty
By the AFREEQUE newsroom, based on Fanamc
Ethiopia wants to strengthen its food sovereignty by developing agricultural production to supply its population and increase exports. This approach is presented as the economic continuation of its history of defending African independence, according to Fanamc, which notably cites the 1896 victory at Adwa.
Ethiopia is making agricultural transformation a lever for food sovereignty by strengthening its capacity to produce for domestic consumption and export, Fanamc reports. This approach forms part of Africa’s pursuit of greater autonomy for food systems.
According to the media outlet, Ethiopia’s experience is presented as a source of inspiration for other African countries facing food insecurity. The country thus wants to extend its history of defending sovereignty and resisting foreign domination into the agricultural sphere.
