Capacity building in food and agribusiness involves enhancing skills, knowledge, and resources of individuals, organisations, and communities to effectively engage in the agricultural sector, ensuring sustainable production, market competitiveness, and innovation in food systems.
Capacity building helps small-scale farmers improve agricultural practices, access new markets, adopt sustainable methods, and increase crop yields. This leads to better income stability, resilience against market fluctuations, and overall improved livelihoods.
Technology plays a crucial role by providing advanced tools for precision agriculture, efficient resource management, data analysis for market trends, and online platforms for knowledge sharing and networking. This enhances productivity and innovation in agribusiness.
Capacity building and training can be measured through key indicators such as skill enhancement levels, improvements in productivity and efficiency, increased market access, and adoption of sustainable practices. Regular assessments, feedback from participants, and monitoring progress against set objectives also provide tangible metrics for evaluating capacity building effectiveness.
By empowering farmers and agribusinesses with enhanced skills and knowledge, capacity building and training ensures more efficient and sustainable food production, leading to increased availability, accessibility, and affordability of food, thereby contributing to food security.
