ATHENS. KAZINFORM - Ambassador of the Republic of Kazakhstan to the Hellenic Republic Yerlan Baudarbek-Kozhataev met with the Minister of Agricultural Development and Food of Greece Spilios Livanos, Kazinform cites the press service of the Kazakh Foreign Ministry.
With just over half a million inhabitants, Cabo Verde is heavily dependent on food imports. It spent $65 million importing food products in 2018.
This dependence on food imports puts the country in a vulnerable situation when it comes to food security. According to Food and Agricultural Organisation, Cabo Verde has not yet eradicated hunger, with about 5.3% of its population suffering from food insecurity.
There are other challenges too. Cabo Verde is located in the Sahelian arid and semiarid region which means there is sporadic rainfall. Agriculture in the archipelago is highly dependent on rainfall. Poor soil and limited water resources make the situation even more critical. Limited agro-industrial production with outdated and noncompetitive manufacturing industry are factors too.
