This basic Agriculture Public
Expenditure Review (AgPER) documents and analyzes
information on the volume and structure of Liberia's
past public expenditure on the agriculture sector and draws
conclusions that can provide an orientation for future
policies in view of the effectiveness of spending. The
AgPER's focus is on the sectors of agriculture,
including crops, fisheries, and forestry, in line with the
New Partnership for African Development's (NEPAD)
definition of the sectors of focus. This is in accordance
with the Maputo Declaration and its target that governments
devote ten percent of public expenditure for agricultural
development with an aim towards realizing food security and
poverty reduction.
