With the continual rise of global commodity prices and increasing population pressures worldwide, the future of agriculture is looking increasingly unstable. As a result of this escalating demand and intensification of unsustainable agricultural techniques, natural resources are facing an increasing threat of depletion. Knowing this, the agricultural potential of sub-Saharan Africa has been relatively ignored and as a globally recognised process, Sustainable Land Management (SLM) will play an important role in addressing these pressures, without jeopardising the sustainability of the region. Although conceptually simple, the adoption of SLM is surrounded by many constraints embedded within the stakeholder levels, of policy makers, technocrats and farmers. The opportunities to address the reluctance of adoption SLM are also apparent at this same level, and the analysis therefore takes place across a multi-level stakeholder structure. This research piece highlights the region specific constraints and opportunities for implementing SLM whilst also offering recommendations and further research topics as a guideline for future management initiatives and policies.
