Irrigation farming: a lifeline for budding ‘agripreneurs’

Abstract

Irrigation Irrigation farming: a lifeline for budding ‘agripreneurs’ Rural poverty is the most severe, with rural people more than twice as likely to be poor; and the severity of rural poverty is nearly three times that of urban dwellers. Women and youth suffer the most. The challenges in tackling poverty are compounded by high unemployment, most visibly reflected in youth unemployment, which in 2015 was estimated at 45.3%. This is a crisis indeed.
