Abstract
This article infers the best explanation of “modernising the farming process” or MFP” in Northern and Western Africa (NWAR). The theory of peasant economy guides the inference of the best explanation of “MFP”. This purpose involves the hypothetico-deductive method through random effects modelling and systems dynamics simulation. Thus, NWAR form the sample constructed on the secondary dataset between 2011 and 2020. The findings revealed that “MFP” is a necessary and sufficient condition for these regions’ food systems and exports. Moreover, agricultural policy is associated with “MFP” in both regions, even though it is a necessary albeit insufficient condition. Consequently, as agricultural policy impacts “MFP” and the latter is associated with food systems and exports, the conclusion is that “MFP” calls for an impetus in both regions regarding agricultural extension policy.
