Overview

This proposed private service focuses on the protection of farms, produce and agricultural assets, alongside training and employment opportunities for young men and women.

Why this programme exists

The proposed service is intended to support the protection of agricultural assets, farmland, machinery, storage facilities and rural project sites.

Insecurity around farmland and stored produce discourages investment and reduces what farming communities are willing to cultivate.

Objectives

Employment opportunities for women.
Agricultural and farm asset protection.
Structured training and certification.
Support for food security objectives.

Expected outcomes
