Changes in the agri-food sector

Agricultural programs must highlight the importance of agriculture to the region and to global economic transformation. They should also reflect a new approach to how regions shape their future with states defining their development and investment choices by providing a framework for partner contributions and investment decisions. In this way agricultural programs will provide many benefits including strengthening democratic processes by making participation of all stakeholders including farmers a guiding principle. Agriculture is everyone's business and national independence depends on its development as a means of escaping the scourge of food insecurity that undermines our sovereignty and promotes sedition. The role of the States is to give the necessary impulse so that the agricultural activists make of their profession an economic activity generating well-being in rural areas and answering the challenges of employment and the expectations of their citizens in particular as regards security well-being. and independence.
