The document discusses the effect of disharmony between agricultural policy and other internal policies on the success of agricultural goals. It notes unsound policies related to achieving rural agricultural output targets, research, equipment, education, and youth skills development. This leads to low rural youth retention and agricultural output. The document contrasts this with the success possible from harmonious agricultural policy that is in agreement with other relevant policies like environmental, trade, education, and security policies.
