productive, but must also adapt to climate change while
reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Soil carbon
Declining soil fertility due to
inadequate farming practices, deforestation and overgrazing
are among the primary impediments to increased agricultural
productivity in Sub-Saharan Africa. These causal factors,
driven by social, economic and political forces, manifest
