The document discusses strategies for commercializing agricultural technologies developed in the public sector through partnerships with private companies. It describes ICRISAT's efforts to establish an Agri-Science Park and business incubator to facilitate technology transfer and commercialization. The goal is to promote technologies that benefit smallholder farmers and address issues like poverty, food security, and environmental degradation.
Agri-Tech Catalyst Round 9 - Competition Briefing and Networking EventKTN
The Agri-Tech Catalyst offers funding for private sector/academic collaborative research and development projects, to deliver innovation in agriculture and food systems in Africa. All projects must include a partner from an eligible African country.
There is up to £5 million of funding available from the Department for International Development (DFID) and the Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF) through Round 9 of this competition for early-stage feasibility studies, mid stage industrial research and late-stage experimental development. Projects must work on agri-tech and food chain innovations with partners in eligible African countries. The aim of this competition is to increase the pace of innovation in the development of agricultural and food systems in Africa. Your project must result in more use of innovations by farmers and food systems organisations such as manufacturers, processors, retailers, distributors and wholesalers.
Round 9 of funding from the Catalyst opened on 14th October 2019 and closes on 8th January 2020. The Knowledge Transfer Network (KTN) hosted a Competition Briefing and Networking Event for organisations developing projects for the Agri-Tech Catalyst on 24th October 2019 in Birmingham.

Developing entrepreneurship through processing and value additionAshish Murai
Entrepreneurship development is a vital for bringing out the transformation in our agriculture. Developing agricultural enterprises and making our farmers entrepreneurial is the need of the hour to make farming a sustainable livelihood option. Converting a farmer to an agripreneur is an attainable proposition since the qualities of entrepreneurs are not inherited. These characteristics can be developed through systematic awareness and motivational training of farmers for diversification and commercialization of agriculture and create viable enterprises.
