BBC World Service - Business Daily, Angela Merkel Wins Fourth Term

What next for the German economy as Merkel loses support to the nationalist AfD party?

What next for the German economy as Angela Merkel loses support to the nationalist AfD party? The BBC'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 BBC'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.
