| description | An Agricultural Innovation Platform (AIP) facilitates and accelerates transition of
farmers from subsistence farming to socially inclusive, environmentally sound
and market-oriented farming.
AIPs adapt interventions around interlinked levers in the food value chains, with
entry points based on a good understanding of farming systems and input/output
market requirements. Learning activities around these entry points strengthen
stakeholder networks.
Capacitating farmers through stakeholder networks, using mutual learning and
additional technical training sessions, improves their self-organization and helps
them become entrepreneurs, with the private sector as business mentors and
government and extension as facilitators and support.
Prospects for change in complex farming systems often appear few and
uncertain, leaving farmers feeling helpless in the face of challenges. AIPs
demonstrate that small interventions around significant leverage points will have
far-reaching benefits.
With time, stakeholders facilitate multiple changes through AIPs, magnifying
the impact and paving the way for initiatives beyond a project’s lifespan. The
‘AIP experience’ changes their self-perception, resilience, motivation and
empowerment forever. |
