Smallholder groundwater irrigation in Sub-Saharan Africa: country-level estimates of development potential

The abundance of groundwater resources of Sub-Saharan Africa is generally well recognized, but quantitative estimates of their potential for irrigation development are lacking. This study derives estimates using a simple and generic water balance approach and data from secondary sources for 13 count...
