Abstract
By 2050, 90% of the planet’s population will reside in the developing countries of the southern hemisphere (Brink et al. 1998). Achieving global food security necessitates a doubling of food production in the next 50 years (James, 1997). While farmers from developed countries benefit from massive financial subsidies and investment, aid directed to developing country agriculture is pitifully small.
