4 extractive question-and-answer pairs built from Crop Yields | Our World in Data, published by ourworldindata.org. Every answer is a verbatim span of text the source prints, and each row carries the passage it sits in, its offset in that passage, the source quote, the page and the location in the document, so any row can be checked against the original. 3 of the 4 pairs (75.0%) are explanatory questions and 1 restate a figure. 100.00% of rows pass the corpus quality gate.

| What does agricultural productivity across Sub-Saharan Africa need to improve? | to reduce hunger, poverty, and the destruction of biodiversity | Improvements in crop yields have been essential to feed a growing population while reducing the environmental impact of food production at the same time. Increasing crop yields can reduce the amount ofland we use for agriculture. Crop yields might seem far from being one of the world's largest problems. But, if yields and labor productivity do not increase, it will have far-reaching consequences forglobal povertyand the protection of the environment. For people and the planet, it’s one of our most important problems to work on. You can find all our data, visualizations, and writing relating to crop yields on this page.
