Some of the interventions by the ministry of Agriculture to ensure youth development include: <em>The Enable youth Program<\/em> where about 2,008 youths have been involved in transformative value chains for youth space such as Mushrooms, fish, livestock, fish and poultry.<\/p><p>The program targets individuals with particular level of knowledge such as Degree holders who are able to grasp certain content easily. The program also offers individual financial support that ranges from Ksh. 500,000- 2 Million. It also requires the financed individual to empower five more people to ensure communal knowledge and use of skills to improve economy through agribusiness. He noted that, \u201cAgribusiness is about the gap that you are coming to fill and thus requires one to gather more information from agricultural institutions and look at market trends and know where they are applicable in your skill set to promote sustainability.\u201d<\/p><p>Additionally, the event marked the importance of agricultural skills among the youth such as building resilience, providing skill power, promoting creativity and enable agricultural sector to close gaps.
