Analytically, the section addresses set up the problem, context, research objective, and article trajectory ((Fanzo et al., 2021)) 3. Outline guidance for this section is: State the core problem around Agricultural Land Markets and Investment in Sub-Saharan Africa: Towards Sustainable Development Goals; explain why it matters in Mali; define the article objective; preview the structure ((Vos & Takeshima, 2021)). In the context of Mali, the discussion emphasises mechanisms, institutional setting, and the African significance of the problem rather than generic commentary 4. Key scholarship informing this section includes Isakole and the transformation of agricultural land conflict in colonial Yorubaland ), Agricultural Commercialisation and Rural Livelihoods in Malawi: A Historical and Contemporary Agrarian Inquiry ), Sustainable food systems and nutrition in the 21st century: a report from the 22nd annual Harvard Nutrition Obesity Symposium ). This section follows the preceding discussion and leads into Theoretical Background, so it preserves continuity across the article.
