dc.description.abstractSouthern Africa is comprised by 15 members linked by economical and development reasons. The area has a high potential for agriculture but there are factors (climatic, economic, extension, social and soil) constraining the production. Climate change is occurring fast, which lead to the current water crisis in the region. Sugarcane and maize are the major crops produced in the region, and South Africa is the major producer with 43.5% (sugarcane) and 44.8% (maize) of the production in 2016. South Africa, Muritius and Tanzania are the major producers of sugar raw. Data show that they processed the 12% (South Africa), 11% (Mauritius) and 10% (Tanzania) of their sugarcane, respectively, which could reflect a lack of technology or a high level of informal processing. South Africa and Tanzania are the biggest producers of cattle, goats and sheep. South Africa slaughters the 11.8% of their cattle, 20.3% of the goat and 29.7% of the sheep; Tanzania slaughters the 27.2% of the cattle, 15.1% of the goat and 24.9% of the sheep, which leads to a large informal market. Factors affecting the adoption are mainly geographic (water crisis, climate, soil and land use), social (poor community’s wishes considerations within a top-down deliver of technology, to gender issues in chieftaincies, and to language barriers), financial (unequal access and distribution), and extension (communication between the donors, the community and the extension institution such as the government, NGO’s and foundations).
