AgriEn Network (Agribusiness and Agri-Energy) is focused on accelerating, developing and sustaining food system based interventions by various partners.
Did You Know?
A good harvest doesnโt always mean a good income.
What happens after harvest matters just as much as production.

Today, we honour the fathers who are cultivating more than crops. They are cultivating opportunity, resilience, and hope.
Happy Father's Day to all the fathers in the AgriEn community and beyond. ๐

The Last Mile Farmer: Meet Slyvester ๐ฑ
Far from markets. Not far from possibility.
Slyvester Kamfwa says:
โNow my mind is clearer. The way I farm this year is different.โ
AgriEn connects last mile farmers to knowledge that changes how they farm and what they can become.
Some say we're doing too much.
We say building sustainable food systems requires doing what matters.
๐ฑ Resilient farmers. ๐ค Stronger communities. ๐ Sustainable livelihoods. ๐ Better food systems.
The future of agriculture starts today.

Bridging the gap between farmers and markets. ๐ฑ
AgriEn is strengthening farmer-to-business linkages across ๐ญ๐ฒ ๐ฑ๐ถ๐๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฐ๐๐ in Zambia, connecting ๐ฎ๐ฏ,๐ฐ๐ฌ๐ฌ ๐ณ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐บ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ to markets, partnerships and innovative agri-solutions.
#AgriEn#Agriculture#MarketLinkages
AgriEn is operationalizing the groundnuts aggregation system to strengthen farmer access to structured markets. ๐ฑ
With tools like scales, sieves, and moisture meters, THRIVE 2030 producer groups in Moobola and Niko are now market-ready. #Agriculture#MarketAccess
๐In Pemba today with Wattles & Combs and Thrive2030 poultry producer groups. ๐
Hamaundu alone has 1,191 poultry farmers, showing the huge demand for quality feed and stronger last-mile distribution systems.
Stronger Together in Keembe! ๐ฑ
AgriEn, Burro & World Vision are helping THRIVE farmers move harvests easier using the Bush Burro โ a rugged transport solution built for Zambiaโs terrain, carrying up to 250kgs while reducing labour and post-harvest losses.
Food safety is not just a policy issue. It is a market, business, and consumer priority.
Tomorrow, AgriEn, CUTS Zambia, and partners convene stakeholders for a strategic dialogue on:
"Accelerating Food Safety in Zambia: From Policy Commitment to Market Practice Practice."

Self-reliance is not a slogan.
Itโs a system.
Today, we honour Kenneth Kaunda by building food systems that actually work- for farmers, markets, and communities.
#KKDay#KennethKaundaDay#FoodSystems
๐ฑ Letโs be honest.
Agriculture doesnโt fail because farmers donโt know what to do.
It fails because the right players are not working together.
No off-takers.
No input linkages.
No aligned investment.
No system.
Thatโs the gap AgriEn is closing through partnerships.
Farmers dont just need inputs. They need systems that work.
Across Zambia:Limited inputs, Weak markets, low bargaining power, high transport costs, these are system gaps, not isolated issues.
AgriEn is the go-to hub for agribusiness linkages. ๐พ๐ค
The gap is not production. Its connection.
Through THRIVE2030 farmers (World Vision) and beyond, we see it: groundnuts, rice, beans, honey, poultry, dairy, goats - all produced, but not always reaching markets.
@AgriEn_Network connects the dots. ๐พ๐ค
#THRIVE2030
Food systems still exclude the last-mile farmer from key opportunities.
At AgriEn, alligned with the Food and Agriculture Organisation, we're creating pathways to inputs, finance, and markets, so women can fully participate in growth.

Through THRIVE2030 farmers, Zambia's value chains, from rice, poultry, horticulture, dairy & goats to honey and beans, are full of potential. AgriEn connects farmers, markets & partners to turn effort into profit.
