Domestic Production and Procurement of Medicines in Nigeria
The development of a productive, effective and efficient domestic pharmaceutical industry holds huge potentials for a local economy; job opportunities, trans-border trade benefits, improved national earning capacity and a strategy to repress medicine importation. Additionally, Target 3.8 of the Sustainable Development Goals specifically seeks “Access to safe, effective, quality and affordable essential medicines and vaccines for all”, plainly underscoring the importance of ensuring access to essential medicines for all. Although many African countries, including Nigeria, struggle to meet the target for medicine accessibility and affordability, this book reports on-going efforts to improve the situation in Nigeria. We present the status of drug production in the country with emphasis on the local capacity, human resources, R&D investment, intellectual property issues, and the degree of interaction for innovation among the key stakeholders. Additionally, the book articulates key challenges impeding drug production and how they could be addressed through apt and plausible policies.

A Ricardian Analysis of the Impact of Climate Change on African Cropland

The study uses a Ricardian cross-sectional approach in which net revenue is regressed on climate, water flow, soil, and economic variables. The results show that net revenues fall as precipitation falls or as temperatures warm across all the surveyed farms. In addition to examining all farms together, the study examined dryland and irrigated farms separately. Dryland farms are especially climate sensitive. Irrigated farms have a positive immediate r...
