Comparative performance of agricultural productivity in 44 SSA countries for a period of 59 years (1961-2019): A Malmquist productivity index approach.

We investigate the extent and nature of productivity growth in Sub-Saharan African countries using non-parametric frontier techniques. In this work, we examine agricultural total factor productivity (TFP) change in 44 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), covering a period of fifty-nine (59) years (1961-2019). We make use of data drawn from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.

Efficient Water Collection from Biodesigned and Natural Inclined Surfaces: Influence of Inclination Angle on Atmospheric Water Collection.

Water is one of the most important and crucial indicators of sustainable development goals (SDGs) for humans and other living organisms. Water demand has outstripped supply, resulting in shortage on a worldwide scale, particularly in arid regions. This water scarcity has impeded agricultural productivity and other developmental projects with the ongoing global warming and other anthropogenic activities making it more complicated.
