Two challenges facing new  farmers:

• Capital to buy inputs,equipment and infrastructure. E.g poultry house construction and capital to buy feeds. E.g capital to buy dairy cow and feeds management.

• Market sourcing a market will be a challenge for new farmers but in time and with resilience one gets to know way through. Alternative online market platforms come in handy.

Due to a lack of storage and market options, most smallholder farmers will sell their produce at harvest, when prices are at their lowest

Crop production and livesock  management can be learned and the diligent learner will be successful. Disease control and vaccinations need disciplined and timely.
