The project put the utmost emphasis on enhancing rural women’s knowledge and skills in agricultural production and related activities. It also emphasized the development of tools and methods to help design demand-focused programmes that effectively respond to the needs of farmers, especially women farmers. In addition, good practices and experiences of the Rural Women Services Unit of the Department of Training, Extension and Publication of the MFAL were shared .
