Youth have enormous potential to drive agriculture but are faced with many challenges, most of which require sustained political will and action, seeing as the continent has a youthful population capable of ensuring its food and nutrition security @LourenaArone#FARAGA2020
We need to bring youth and farmers to the table because research shared will generate knowledge and knowledge will drive innovations, innovations will then drive productivity and lastly, productivity will drive economic growth - @LourenaArone#FARAGA2020
"Young people have enormous potential to transform agriculture in Africa however, we are saddled with a lack of access to adequate skills, finance and an enabling environment" - Dr. @LourenaArone, Plant Pathologist & Borlaug-Adesina Fellow, at the #FARAGA2020
Our Borlaug-Adesina Fellow from Mozambique, @LourenaArone believes the end goal of agriculture research should be for farmers to be able to use these technologies.
