Abstract

Total agricultural output in Africa rose about 2 percent from 1968 to 1969. Twenty-one of 31 African countries covered in the report showed increases; eight had losses. In West Asia, total agricultural production was down slightly in 1969. Five of eight countries covered in the report registered declines. Compared with 1968 levels, both areas experienced declines in per capita food production. The report gives the early-season outlook for 1970 crops by selected countries and commodities, reviews country trade in agricultural products, and covers each country's trade policy in 1969.
