| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Currently, the government of Bangladesh is interested to strengthen economic ties with African countries through pursuing its 'Look Africa' policy. It is widely perceived that Bangladesh has considerable untapped economic potential in African countries which are endowed with abundant oil, minerals and agricultural land. By undertaking a field-based primary investigation, this paper attempts to examine the potential of Bangladesh's investment in Agricultural sector in Liberia, an African country with plentiful agricultural land. It suggests that Bangladesh can benefit from both full and joint-venture investment in rice, other food grains, fruit production, and agro-processing industries. |
