The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the demand for maize and its production in the period 1980 to 2000. For this reason, population projections were calculated for a period 1980-2000 to estimate demand for maize for the period under consideration. Some assumptions are made regarding fertility and mortality trends as ~el1 as area and yield of land under maize cultivation.
Recommendations will be suggested to ensure enough maize for the population in the future.
