A collaborative study conducted with the African Forum for Agricultural Advisory Services<\/a> (AFAAS), researchers at the International Food Policy Research Institute<\/a> (IFPRI), and ALEC faculty, graduate students and post docs led to being recognized for their innovative work. The study used a\u00a0single instrumental case study to assess the career preparedness of youth participating in a youth organization known as the Nokia Farming Agricultural Innovation Platform (NOFAIP) and opportunities that existed for employment within agriculture-related industries. Results found that upon receiving training from the Ugandan Forum for Agricultural Advisory Services, the NOFAIP group had increased their credibility amongst Ugandan farming communities and supported the growth of agricultural competencies, such as soil testing, using backpack sprayers to spread fertilizers, and managing citrus groves. Through hands-on experiences and engagement with appropriate training, the NOFAIP group established communication channels that were critical to experience personal growth and the invigoration of an entrepreneurial spirit within agriculture. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
