Angela Merkel Wins Fourth Term

Business Daily

Available for over a year

What next for the German economy as Angela Merkel loses support to the nationalist AfD party? The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Rob Young is live from Berlin with reaction from Jeremy Cliffe, Berlin Bureau Chief for The Economist. Also in the programme, the impact of malnutrition and food waste on the African economy. A report released at the 2017 African Green Revolution Forum says it's still a major hindering factor. The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Tamasin Ford reports from Ivory Coast, where poor logistics are leading to unacceptable levels of waste. And we hear from Professor Thomas Reardon at the department of Agricultural, Food, and Resource Economics at Michigan State University. He says that the picture is much more positive than widely reported. (Picture: German parliament, Credit: Getty Images)
