AGRICULTURAL IMPORT DEPENDENCY AS A CHALLENGE TO ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN CAMEROON

Alternative Abstract: ABSTRACT Economic growth theory is the main focus of economic study by most researchers, and it is often linked to several factors in view that these factors are perceived to be crucial in driving the economic growth of a country. Amongst these factors are import, export, investment, private, government expenditure, consumption expenditure and other related factors. This paper uses agriculture import dependency in Cameroon to analyse certain trends in Cameroon's economic growth. This research made use of data analysis from prominent sources like the World Bank, Food and Agricultural Organization and many others to be able to analyse and prove the research hypotheses. Results show that import could indirectly contribute to economic growth, and economic growth could also directly contribute to import. These findings may be vital for future economic growth policy as they propose policy recommendations such as import substitution and protectionism which are destined to curb imports and give power to local producers creating jobs and subsequent economic growth.
