Facilitators and participants at the Group Dynamics training for agrodealers held in Kebbi State in January 2019 (c) 2019 IFPRI

To equip agro-dealers with adequate skills to manage their groups, the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) delivered on behalf of the FtF Nigeria Agricultural Policy Project a training course for agro-dealers in Kebbi State on 28 – 29 January 2019.

The 35 participants (25 male, 10 female) represented various groups and were exposed to knowledge and skills related to conflict resolution, working as a team, communication and record keeping.

It is expected that such trainings would enhance the capacity of various players in Nigeria’s agricultural sector to engage more effectively on policy discussions and implementation.

The training is part of capacity building activities of the Feed the Future Nigeria Agricultural Policy Project, which is jointly implemented by Michigan State University and IFPRI’s Nigeria Strategy Support Program. The project is funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID/Nigeria)
