Kristin Davis, Javier M. Ekboir, David J. Spielman · 2008 · The Journal of Agricultural Education and Extension

Summary. Agricultural education and training in Mozambique must strengthen farmers' capacity to innovate by improving how organizations transmit and adapt knowledge. The paper argues that AET systems need cultural reform, better incentives, and stronger networks linking educators with other stakeholders. Key reforms include aligning AET mandates with national development goals and building connections between training institutions and the broader agricultural innovation ecosystem.
