What effect has the World Bank policy had on African nations?

  • A.The African government has restricted private sector investment in agriculture.
  • B.Africa has focused more on health and education rather than on agriculture.
  • C.US and Britain have volunteered substantial aid to Africa as Africa has complied with World Bank ideology.
  • D.The agriculture sector in these countries is not as productive as it could be.

Answer: D

Correct answer: The agriculture sector in these countries is not as productive as it could be.

The passage says the Bank tried to get governments out of agriculture, leaving impoverished peasants to fend for themselves, and that the result has been a disaster in Africa, with farm productivity stagnant for decades. Stagnant productivity is the effect the passage names.
