Access to markets by African farmers, especially women farmers, also remains 
limited at the local, national, regional, and international levels.
In an increasingly 
globalized environment, Africa’s participation in the global agricultural commodity and value-
added market remains limited, at only 2%

. Regional trade has so far played only a marginal 
role and remains largely informal. For example, the value of informal cross-border trade in 
southern Africa, 70% of which is conducted by women, is estimated to be above US$7 billion. 
Informality not only limits government revenue, but also restricts business growth by limiting 
access to formal credit, making businesses more vulnerable to harassment, and the inconsistent 
application of trade policies. Additionally, the policies of rich countries on subsidies have 
limited market access, while a host of supply constraints (poor infrastructure, credit, lack of 
insurance, etc.) restrict the participation of African agriculture in international markets. Trade 
finance is also widely acknowledged to be a limiting constraint to expanding both intra- and 
external agricultural export initiatives.

The scale of capital required to transform agriculture in Africa is larger than the 
public sector alone can manage, while for the private sector the risk-adjusted returns are not 
yet established enough to support investments at this level. There are also a defined set of 
areas where the public sector is best positioned to be an efficient actor in driving the growth of
