    AfricaAfrica’’s Natural Resourcess Natural Resources• Agriculture

    – Contributes 40% of African GDP % provides livelihood for 60% of population, but largest user of scarce water

    – Enormous unrealised potential (low yields & only x% under cultivation)– But, agri-commodities exported without processing (beneficiation)

    • Minerals– World’s top producer of numerous mineral commodities;– Has world’s greatest resources of many more;– Africa lacks systematic geo-survey: could be > resources;– But exported as ores, concs, metals: Need > beneficiation.

    • Energy– Significant fossil fuels (oil, gas and coal) – Large biomass and bio-fuels potential (ethanol, bio-diesel)– Massive hydro-electric potential (Inga 45GW, Congo River 200GW)

    • Forestry– 22% of African land is forested (650m hectares= 17% of world total);– Deforestation: Africa’s net change highest globally = -0.78% p.a;– Huge silviculture potential, but exported as logs/chips: need > bene.

    • Fishing– Decline in catch rate (international poaching! over-harvesting);– 68% of marine protected areas under threat;– Aquaculture/mariculture still nascent (large potential)

    • Tourism– Major potential (world’s greatest diversity: culture, flora, fauna,

    geomorphology) – Increasingly important source of livelihood

    Thus, Africa’s short to medium term potential lies in our natural comparative advantage:natural comparative advantage:

    Namely, resource & resource-based industries (provide a competitive platform for finished products in the longer term, and

    immediate market for resource inputs industries)

    1. In the early stages of development, there is a tendency for the growth of diversified conglomerates (in order the build the requisite corporate capital base for large projects), such as the “zaibatsu” in Japan, the “chaebol” in Korea, the “Bombay Club” in India and the diversified “Mining Houses” in South Africa and Zimbabwe;

    2. Over time, these conglomerates tend to break up into specialised industry-specific companies. This increasing focus on “core competence” (resource exploitation) could deny Africa the opportunities of resource beneficiation and supplier industries;

    3. This disaggregation is often accelerated by the relisting of diversified Majority World companies on to the major Minority World stock markets where, with greater international (institutional) stock holders, they come under immense pressure to “unbundle” and dispose of non-core activities, to realise stock holder value. This occurred with the southern African highly diversified “Mining Houses” (which used to have extensive resource upstream and downstream operations);

    4. This evolution is generally irreversible, but a possible African strategy could be to engage “consortia” of resource, infrastructure and inputs companies to jointly develop prospective resources, in order to realise the critical linkages.

    The resource curse can be avoided!“Deepening” the resource sector linkages: development of the

    resource inputs & outputs industries is critical

    Finland managed to shift from a 1970 resources (pc) trajectory to a 1998 manufactures (mf) trajectory, through the development of its resources inputs (machinery) and outputs (value-addition) sectors (source Palma, G. 2004)

    Finland: e.g. Forestry- grew capital goods (machinery) exports and value-added

    exports (wood manufactures, pulp/paper)

    Finland: 1970 on primary commodities (pc- mining & forestry) inverted U-

    curve, but shifts to 1998 manufacturing curve (mf- resources

    inputs & outputs/beneficiation).

    Chile: 1970 on manufacturing U-curve (ISI), but shifts to 1998 primary

    commodities (mining & agriculture) curve, after opening up its economy

    (coup) in the 70’s.

    Investment in Geo-knowledge • Numerous studies (USGS, W.Australia, BGS) have

    definitively showed the extremely high return to the state from investment in geo-survey (~1:10 investment to return ratio to the fiscus)

    • In general, the lower the geo-info base, the higher the risk, the lower the share of resource rents to the state: The less a state knows about the value of its mineral assets, the worse the deal it’s likely to be able to negotiate with foreign investors.

    • This will inevitably compromise the longer term sustainability of the investment: An unequal extractive deal serves neither the investor nor the host state over the longer term!

    e.g. an Africa-PRC ““CompactCompact””for Growth & Development?

    • Configure a mutual benefit “compact” of intent between the AU/AfDB and PRC that “balances”access to resources and markets with:– Infrastructure not only for resource extraction, but also for

    integrated development (Nepad SDP concept)– HRD in all the FDI areas– Resource beneficiation before export– Resource inputs (supplier) industries– JVs to develop local capital– Investment in geo-survey (joint “Afro-Sino” JRC DFI?)– Location of consumer products industries for products

    destined for African markets (where viable) – (AGOA, EPAs, MGOA?)

    – Adherence to codes of conduct (EITI, Equator Banks, SHE codes)

    • Establish a joint Africa-PRC investment facilitation & monitoring commission?

    ACHIEVABLE??
