There are related to the supply of improved agricultural inputs, cover cropping, intercropping, adoption of improved processing techniques, and provision of credit facilities. The process of modernisation of the small-holder sector has also been efectively initiated with the introduction of small-holder training programmes on planting techniques, efficient tapping methods and better husbandry.
