Key Implications for Policy Makers

• A combination of agriculture and enterprise skills should be provided to smallholders to enable them to respond to changing economic and environmental circumstances.
• The collection of data on smallholders which is disaggregated by gender is vital to inform strategies for addressing women’s needs.
• Strengthening the relationships between agencies responsible for extension and local government is required to improve responsiveness to smallholders.
