MAJOR PROBLEMS OF AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT

-

To start from last article which was published on the 8th of August ,2015; I believe we all understand what agriculture is all about and the importance of it to life. Today I will continue from where I stop. As we already known the importance, let us go straight down to the major problems of agriculture.


MAJOR PROBLEMS OF AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT
Developing countries faced numerous problems which militates against the development of Agriculture. Some of them are:
o Problems of Land Tenure
o Problem of Basic Amenities
o Poor Financing
o Poor Transportation
o Poor Communication
o Problems of Good Storage and Processing Facilities
o Lack of Good Agricultural Education
o Poor Extension Activities
o Poor Tools and Farm Machines
o Unstable Policies and Programs of Government
o Poor Marketing System
o Pest and Diseases 
o Unpredictable Climate
o Agricultural Inputs Use
o Sociological and Psychological Attitude Towards Farming 
o Snuggling 
o Environmental Degradation
The problems are highlighted, now I will explain the problems one after the other.

1. PROBLEMS OF LAND TENURE
Land is one of the most important factors in agricultural production. Land tenure is the way land is owned in a society. The prevailing land tenure systems in the country often discourage agricultural land utilisation. Land is owned by inheritance hence land is fragmented over generations. Increase in population has increased the various alternatives to which land can be put. This further puts pressure on all the available land.

I really appreciate your time in reading this little article. Next article, I will continue from where I stop using the highlighted problem, just want you to go over it and add to this, with your believe and your orientation about this Noble Sector. I hope to see your comment.
Thanks

7 Effective Ways to Develop Your Negotiation Skills

1. Practise Saying ‘No’ Human beings are programmed to be non-confrontational. From a young age, we’re taught to follow orders or else get punished, and as adults, we’re taught the same thing. Time and again, we’re told to ‘let it go’ and ‘just go with the flow’ so we don’t upset the client or the boss. This lifelong habit of avoiding confrontation and just saying ‘yes’ weakens your negotiation skills. But not to worry; you can still reprogramme your mind by practising saying ‘no’.

These might seem like small steps, but taking the opportunity to say ‘no’ to minor instances will help you say ‘no’ to bigger things – whether it’s
