Agreed! supporting govts to develop & deliver policies that create this enabling investment environment is key.

[Daniel Kiragu @DanielKiragu_]

Digitalisation can be a game-changer in transforming Africa’s #agriculture, attracting young people to farming and allowing farmers to optimise production

But we need to be conscious & support solutions that are sustainable and that are tailored to countries’ needs. #AGRF2019

@MastercardFdn @reetaroymcf Policy that enables support for youth entrepreneurs and SME key in AgFood systems key.

Across #Africa, small farms dominate. But limited mechanization leads to poor yields. Fragmented markets and poor infrastructure limit production. Now is the time to invest in Africa: https://t.co/KZontMEp5h #DFFAFrica #AfricaCan

H.E @PaulKagame: In Africa there's a chronic deficit of large scale economic funding and that is why we are here today. #DFFAFRICA #AfricaCan @WorldBank @UrugwiroVillage ^BK

[AGRA - Sustainably Growing Africa’s Food Systems. @AGRA_Africa]

Agribusiness is one of the largest sectors in EAC with potential to contribute more to jobs & food security. #DFFAfrica will build on past regional initiatives to catalyze public & private sector collaboration in #ag value chains to unlock opportunities for effective investment.

[Holger Kray @holgerkray]

There has never been a better time to invest in #agrifood in #Africa. We’re witnessing a fundamental transformation of food systems w/ a rise in income, changing consumption patterns, rise of entrepreneurial African farmers; improvided service provision etc. #DFFAfrica
