opportunities for men and women in
agriculture can impede overall sector growth.

Implementing fair market policies, ensuring transparent
pricing mechanisms, and facilitating access to markets help
farmers receive just compensation for their products.

Providing targeted subsidies, credit facilities, and financial
support can assist farmers, especially smallholders, in
adopting modern technologies and improving productivity.
Infrastructure Development:
Policies that focus on building and maintaining rural
infrastructure, such as roads, irrigation systems, and
storage facilities, can enhance agricultural productivity
and connectivity.
21. Education and Training:
Supporting policies that enhance education and training
for farmers, especially in the use of modern technologies,
can lead to increased efficiency and improved yields.

Developing policies that address the impact of climate
change on agriculture and promote adaptive measures,
such as drought-resistant crops and water management
strategies, is essential.
