COU-TEDDO has supported Local Governments structures
to provide agricultural information to farmers. This aimed at
improving the quality and quantity of produce, enhancing value
addition and agro-business profit margins. Seed and plant clinics
that connect farmers with the private sector actors dealing in
agricultural products have been organized. Farmers access farm
inputs; agriculture professionals who offer agro-ecological advisory
services, market information and value addition technologies
among others. Through cooperative societies, farmers have
improved production and profitability of the agro-businesses.
