RECOMMENDATIONS
To accelerate agricultural mechanisation for the benefit of smallholders
there should more research and development of the technologies that
have worked for other countries with similar challenges as Zimbabwe.
Government should give small holder farmers tenure documents so that
they can be able to access financial facilities from banks and the private
sector -small holder credit
Capacitate farmers to increase agricultural production and productivity by
supporting technical staff with resources to fully undertake their work,
such as mobility training material.
Encourage and promote primary agro-processing and value addition
To have a census of the level of mechanisation so that we have an
inventory which will enable us to have proper planning for sustainable
mechanisation in the small holder sector. e.g number of tractors versus
output.View entire presentation
