1 1 st Annual Regional Agricultural Outlook: Anticipating and responding to policy challenges in the decade ahead Presentation at 1 st Annual ReNAPRI Outlook Symposium Lusaka, Zambia November 4 th, 214

2 Outline 1. ReNAPRI: localizing agricultural policy research The Network The Modelling Framework 2. Sector Level Analysis: regional maize outlook Global outlook Regional outlook 3. Farm Level Analysis: benchmarking maize cost of production 4. Strategic Foresighting: border closing scenario

3 ReNAPRI: Localizing Agricultural Policy Research The Goal: Provide policy-makers with relevant and accurate information The Challenge: Regional agricultural policy research and outreach is largely driven by non-african institutions In terms of implementation, this external analysis has yielded very little fruit to date.

4 ReNAPRI: Localizing Agricultural Policy Research Regional Network of Agricultural Policy Research Institutes (ReNAPRI) Offers a unique solution: African-led, African-driven initiative with a ground-up approach to policy research Membership includes existing policy research institutes with a proven track-record of policy advisement within their respective countries.

7 Maize Markets: global drivers Patrick Westhoff FAPRI-MU director University of Missouri

8 Agenda Why have world maize prices declined from recent record levels? What are the main drivers of future market prices? What can we expect? How uncertain are projections? Why?

The percentage annual rate of growth in Africa s population is slowing, but the absolute number of people being added to Africa s population each year is still increasing. In Asia and the rest of the world, not only is the annual percentage rate of growth in population declining, but the absolute number of people being added each year is also declining. Africa accounts for about one-sixth of the world s population, but will account for about one-third of the global increase in population this decade.

27 Final comments Recent swings in global maize prices are largely due to U.S. weather, which lowered yields in 212 and raised them in 214 U.S. ethanol and China have been major sources of demand growth China may continue to grow, but U.S. ethanol may not Longer-term price trends depend on relative rates of growth in technology (yields), population, and per-capita demand We expect maize prices to average above recent lows, but below peaks But in any given year, weather and other unpredictable factors will cause price volatility

70 Case Study: South Africa

71 Case Study: South Africa Specific case study in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa - Same type of small-scale producer in the same area - Same size / same area - Difference: Mentorship (GSA vs. traditional)

72 Difference: Production Systems

73 Difference: Production Systems Lime application: 1 ton per hectare on farm with access to the support program - no lime application on farm that followed traditional methods Plant protection on the supported farms was done using chemical treatments while traditional methods included only the use of hand hoes with manual labour A basal and top dressing fertilizer application on the farm that had access to support while the traditional approach only had a basal application. The total NPK was less on the traditional approach as on the farm who obtained support. The type and amount of land preparations differed between the two groups of farms

80 Scenario Planning & Strategic Foresighting: Impacts of a Zambian maize export restriction

81 The scenario Zambia puts in place restrictions that reduce its 215 maize exports by 2, tonnes All other policies in Zambia and in other countries remain as in the baseline

82 Impacts on Zambian maize markets in Change from baseline, 1 tonnes Change from baseline, percent Exports Food use Feed use Ending stocks Exports Food use Feed use Ending stocks -27 Price

83 Impacts on regional maize markets in Change from baseline net exports, 1 tonnes Change from baseline prices, percent Zambia S. Africa Kenya Malawi Moz. DRC

84 Impacts on Zambian maize in 215 and Percentage change from baseline Price Production Food use Feed use Ending stocks Exports

85 Some lessons Lower prices in Zambia hurt producers, help consumers Reduced Zambian exports raise prices in other countries Exporters export more; importers import less Higher prices benefit producers, hurt consumers Changes in relative prices provide incentives for unsanctioned trade Effects can last beyond the year of the export restrictions
