This situation is easy to understand—it's simply because there's an abundance of land, which allows for indulgence! East Africa itself is the second-largest country in the world by area, second only to Russia.
And the arable land area of East Africa is more extensive than Russia's, with food yield per unit area being much higher than Russia's. Plus, given the long-term downward trend in international food prices, East Africa does not need to further expand agricultural land.
Although East Africa does not have Ukraine's fertile black soil, its water and heat conditions are far superior to Russia's. Therefore, East Africa's food output is naturally higher than Russia's, though the quality and taste of the food cannot match those of Europe and America.
However, this mainly affects the cultivation of wheat. As for rice cultivation, East Africa's rice taste and quality have now approached the levels of the Far Eastern countries, and its output far exceeds that of East Asian countries.
