Application Deadline: 31st Oct 2013
SEEKING A PARTNER IN CONSULTANCY AND AGRICULTURE EXPERTISM
As an entrepreneur in agriculture, I am really excited about the potential in
agriculture. If I were a person, starting out in business today, I would
seriously consider agriculture.
The first thing, you would need to do is to change the way you see agriculture.
Many people make the mistake of seeing agriculture, as nothing more than an
activity of the rural poor, simply trying to subsist. It is not, and should not
be seen that way. Agriculture possesses as much potential for entrepreneurship
expression, as telecommunications, or mining oil and gas in Tanzania or even
the outside world.
My friend Florey Nyoni and my core partner, who is an Expert in General
Agriculture from Esgodini Agricultural college in Harare, is always saying
“agriculture is not a development activity, it is an industry.” Ever
since he mentioned this to me, I have really opened my entrepreneurial eyes to
see the opportunities, and it is absolutely breathtaking. One expert in
Holland, one of the leading experts in agriculture told me that “one kg.
of tomato seed that they produce, is worth more than 1 kg. of gold”.
We really need young people to start to think differently about agriculture in
Tanzania, and to begin to obtain the type of skills that will totally transform
Africa, through agriculture. We hope to acquire good endorsements from aspiring
partners, donors, friends and investors in this initiative.
