Drivers and trends of agriculture in southern Africa Source: Adopted from Capacity Development Initiative in Modernizing Food Systems—Michigan State, Makerere, Stellenbosch and Pretoria Universities, 2010) Strong urbanization and income growth Growing food markets and changes in composition (more meat, dairy, fresh and processed food) 5-6 times the marketed food between 2010 and 2050
