Also, radio is very effective means of disseminating agricultural information and it has a positive impact on awareness of farmers on Kilimo Kwanza policy. The researcher recommends that the government in cooperation with TBC should offer frequent training to products of Kilimo Kwanza so that will be more aware of Kilimo Kwanza policy and prepare programmes that time for Kilimo Kwanza programme. This will help listen. TBC should allocate more time for Kilimo Kwanza programme. This will help to raise the level of awareness of farmers on Kilimo Kwanza policy. | en_US |
