The African Agricultural Mechanization Study (circa 1967-1969) was a study of agricultural technology in several African countries including Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, Gambia, Ghana, Nigeria, Senegal, Ivory Coast, and Tanzania.
Scope and Contents note
The African Agricultural Mechanization Study records contain administrative and accounting records, correspondence, and progress and final reports. Technical records consist primarily of information on hydraulic systems, also some on agriculture and various African countries. Also includes a few workshop and colloquium records, and records for the U.S. Agency for International Development.
