“My learning experience has been excellent as I am learning new things a daily basis. I have gained a lot of knowledge through yes youth modules, they taught me passion, patience and perseverance even now my communication skills have improved. Before I started this programme, I was already into farming. It was not just a hobby, it was a passion. Agriculture is a huge industry for food and security globally. I can see the importance of agriculture in our society and our country as a whole .”

I'm looking forward to expanding my knowledge about the agriculture sector and hoping to become a local farmer one day.”

I have gained new ideas, knowledge and tried to be discoveries rather than relying on the ideas of others, but mostly the importance of agriculture in our daily lives. A lot has been advanced and I started to think about agriculture to cover a large part of the basic sector of needs to keep the country stable in terms of food security and financial stability in fact in the GDP local to national. I’m looking forward to gain more knowledge and experience”

I have gained many skills in this program such as management skills , problem solving skills , good communication skills, teamwork building skills and new ways of planting, and I also understand more about agriculture. Before I used to not take agriculture seriously , but since I have started this program I take it as a source of living. At the end of this program I see myself starting my small farming and selling vegetables in my area.”
