-
@calestous what about Kenya to some extent? -
@BBatwooki I think we will think of serious industrial policies with regional market integration. -
@calestous is it lack of policies or political will? -
@BBatwooki Mostly path dependence and lack of competence. It is structural. -
@calestous I don't see cotton listed under the IITA website ....cassava, bananas & few others..need to advise on long fibre cotton seedlings -
@BBatwooki@calestous Don't mean to interrupt this convo, but what about Ethiopia. See > https://globalconnections.hsbc.com/global/en/articles/made-ethiopia-rise-textile-industry … -
@CollectAfrica Ethiopia has a more focused industrial vision independent of raw materials@BBatwooki -
@calestous@BBatwooki Understood, really thought I was on to something!
