Online Resource

Helpful Votes
This blog entry by the World Bank's Chief Economist for Africa examines the impacts that climate change may have on African agriculture, specifically regarding rainfall and irrigation. He poses the question: could the threat of climate change (or the benefits of avoiding the harmful effects of climate change) tip the balance in favor of more irrigation? The post provides a link to a longer paper that examines these issues at greater length: http://blogs.worldbank.org/files/africacan/AERC%20paper_Draft_30Nov_BG&AB-sd.pdf.
