Many farmers in sub-Saharan Africa often lack the capital to buy their own
machinery and equipment and have had to innovate to find solutions. One
such innovation has been the provision of hire services for agricultural
machinery and equipment.



Produced by the FAO Investment Centre and Plant Production and Protection
Division, this latest publication, *Agri-hire in sub-Saharan Africa:
business models for investing in sustainable mechanization*
<https://doi.org/10.4060/cb5071en>, draws on experiences shared by these
service providers and looks at factors behind the success of this business
model, identifying entry points for investment.



Access to hire services, especially for women and young farmers and
entrepreneurs, can provide an incentive for smallholder farmers in
sub-Saharan Africa, to use conservation agriculture techniques and invest
in sustainable agricultural mechanization.



The publication is geared towards policymakers, investment practitioners
and financial partners, and includes an analysis of five business models
which are led by the private sector – including farmers, cooperatives and
small and medium enterprises.

De nombreux agriculteurs d’Afrique sub-saharienne ne disposent pas du
capital requis pour acquérir leurs propres machines et équipements et
doivent trouver des solutions innovantes. La fourniture de services de
location de matériel agricole constitue l’une de ces innovations.



Intitulée *Agri-location en Afrique sub-saharienne : Modèles économiques
pour investir dans la mécanisation durable*
<https://doi.org/10.4060/cb5071fr>, la dernière née des publications du
Centre d’investissement et de la Division de la protection végétale et de
la production des plantes de la FAO puise dans l’expérience de ces
prestataires de services, examine les facteurs de succès de ce modèle
économique et identifie les points d’entrée de l'investissement.



L’accès à des services de location, notamment pour les femmes ainsi que les
jeunes agriculteurs et chefs d’entreprise, peut motiver les petits
producteurs d’Afrique sub-saharienne à recourir aux techniques de
l’agriculture de conservation et à investir dans la mécanisation agricole
durable.



La publication s’adresse aux décideurs, aux praticiens en investissement et
aux partenaires financiers. Elle analyse cinq modèles économiques
applicables au secteur privé, notamment agriculteurs, coopératives et PME.
