    History of agricultural production and prices

    I’m from Nigeria, and I studied agricultural economics during my undergraduate degree. There is what we called manisect production which I believe it has not been done in other part of the world. It’s a way of reproducing scarce species of some root and tuber crops rapidly especially cassava by cutting and planting it asexually using bud.

    I’m a Nigerian, I also studied agricultural economics in my undergraduate degree.
