Abstract
In 1998 the Friends-of-the-Book Foundation (Friends) made a proposal to the Technical Centre for Agricultural and Rural Co-operation (CTA) to support the publishing of three issues of the journal annually, The African Journal of Food and Nutritional Security (AJFNS). Most African countries have a food deficit due to a poorly developed agricultural infrastructure, diminishing agricultural land, droughts and imprudent policies which encourage food imports. This has stagnated agricultural development. yet Africans must consider the provision of food and nutritional security a priority, if she will claim for any stake in the new millenium.
