ibrahim traore, burkina faso, africa news — food sovereignty faces crisis as rice imports surge under global farm wars.
Burkina Faso, a nation of farmers, now faces an unexpected threat — dependency on imported rice. Despite fertile land and decades of agricultural heritage, the country’s rice import bill has exploded, rising by more than 60% since 2023. Global “farm wars” — from India’s export bans to Western subsidies — have disrupted supply chains and left Burkina Faso paying the price. This analysis explores how the crisis began, who profits from it, and what it means for Africa’s sovereignty. President Ibrahim Traoré’s call for agricultural self-reliance may define the next chapter of Africa’s independence: not from colonial armies, but from foreign grain. Can Burkina Faso reclaim control of its soil before another supply shock strikes?
