Enabling the Business of Agriculture
2015 is a pilot assessment report on the agribusiness sector
enabling environment in 10 countries. This progress report
covers the methodology, key insights and lessons learned
from the pilot effort. Enabling the Business of Agriculture
2015 is a first step toward identifying areas and data sets
that can be used to build indicators in subsequent phases of
the project; the indicators will measure and monitor
policies and regulations that impact how markets function in
the agricultural sector. The 10 countries represent a range
of geographic regions in different stages of agricultural
development, as follows: Ethiopia, Guatemala, Morocco,
Mozambique, Nepal, the Philippines, Rwanda, Spain, Uganda,
and Ukraine. Data are current as of 31 March, 2014. Enabling
the Business of Agriculture breaks down the agricultural
value chain the full range of activities and services needed
to bring a commodity or product from production to sale in
the final market into different topic areas. Six of these
topics were selected for study during the pilot year
registering agricultural land, accessing financial services,
strengthening seed systems, improving fertilizer supply,
transporting agricultural goods, and selling agricultural
goods. Another three topics were chosen for initial testing:
contracting agricultural production, electrifying rural
areas, and connecting farmers to information.
