of the Central African Republic
Agriculture is the backbone of the Central African Republic's (CAR) economy, contributing approximately 55% of GDP and employing about 75% of the population, primarily in subsistence farming. Key food crops include cassava, maize, sorghum, millet, peanuts, and plantains, while cotton, coffee, and tobacco are the main cash crops. Despite its potential, the agricultural sector faces significant challenges, such as low productivity, poor infrastructure, limited access to markets and inputs, and vulnerability to climate shocks. Rainfed agriculture dominates, and most farming is manual with minimal use of fertilizers or machinery. Women play a crucial role in agricultural labor, representing over 78% of the workforce. Food insecurity is a pressing issue, with 41% of the population severely food insecure due to high food prices and disrupted markets. Revitalizing agriculture through investments in infrastructure, climate-smart practices, and institutional reforms is critical for poverty reduction and economic growth in the CAR.
