  A research report on “Youth and Smallholder Farmers in Agric-Tech in Africa” has identified lack of training, funds as well as access to lands for farming as the key barriers to youth engagement in agriculture in Africa. The research conducted by Heifer International, a global development organisation focused on ending poverty and hunger, showed that there was low agricultural technology adoption in most African countries as only 23 percent of the youth in farming used agricultural technologies. Madam Ewurabena Yanyi-Akofur, an Interim Country Director of Heifer International Ghana, who launched the research report in Accra on Friday, said the potential of the agricultural sector to contribute to development in Africa was threatened by a generational shift in interest in farming among young people.
