Статья посвящена изучению проблем и возможностей развития сельскохозяйственного сектора в Западной Африке. Цель исследования состоит в выявлении способов повышения эффективности производства сельскохозяйственной продукции и урожайности в Западной Африке. Задача заключается в поиске, выявлении, разработке и внедрении наиболее эффективных методов и алгоритмов реализации обозначенной цели, а также проблем и препятствий на этом пути. В статье описано современное состояние сельского хозяйства в данном субрегионе. Автор рассматривает современные проблемы сельского хозяйства на этой территории, приводит примеры сельского хозяйства других регионов мира для сопоставления с западноафриканским. Интенсивное сельское хозяйство различных стран рассмотрено как вариант для развития западноафриканского региона. Изучены внешние факторы, влияющие на развитие сельского хозяйства в Западной Африке, в частности климатические изменения, повышение среднегодовой температуры. Уделено внимание вопросу поиска нового пути развития сельского хозяйства, устойчивого к климатическим изменениям. Проанализированы возможности и проблемы, связанные с применением агроэкологии на примере Республики Сенегал.

The article is about the challenges and opportunities for the development of the agricultural sector in West Africa. The aim of the study is to identify ways of improving the efficiency of agricultural production in West Africa, to increase yields. The task is to find, identify, develop and implement the most effective methods and algorithms for realising the above aim, and the challenges and obstacles along the way. The article describes the current state of agriculture in this sub-region. The author considers modern problems of agriculture in this territory, gives examples of agriculture in other regions of the world for comparison with West African. Intensive agriculture of various countries is considered as an option for the development of the West African region. The external factors, affecting the development of West African agriculture, in particular climatic change, increase in the average annual temperature, are considered. Attention is paid to the question of finding a new way of development of agriculture, resistant to climatic change. Possibilities and problems, related to the application of agroecology on the example of the Republic of Senegal, are analysed.
