Abstract

The model’s rationale builds on demand for agricultural products that needs to be satisfied by a matching supply. The model provides results in five year intervals from 2000 until 2030 for each of the five agro-ecological zones of Cameroon and the study area in Southern Cameroon, and in terms of the contributions of the 15 most prevalent agricultural crops in the country. The model comprises six computation steps, each of which is parameterized using available data for Cameroon: 1) population, 2) food & feed consumption, 3) trade within Cameroon and with the rest of the world, 4) agricultural production, 5) cultivated area, and 6) resulting forest cover change.
