Since 1983 the Ghanaian government has pursued an economic recovery programme (ERP) and substantial growth of output has been achieved. After years of decline, export volumes have also been expanding, but it is disputed how much of this expansion can be attributed to the ERP. This book studies the question of the extent to which non-traditional exports have responded to the policies of the ERP. After reviewing overall export performance and policies towards non-traditional exports, the report draws upon the results of a special survey to examine the incentive structure facing the sector and how its output has responded to this. The nature of remaining constraints on exporters is also examined. The report concludes with policy recommendations. (DÜI-Hff)
