Description/Abstract

Duplication of efforts in research and development (R&D) work in the region costs millions of dollars every year. This is attributed to lack of coordination, limited research communication among R&D institutions and the beneficiaries. Knowledge exchange on developments in technologies, innovations, and management practices in agriculture need to be effectively disseminated if gains in research investments are to be realised.
