<span style="font-size: 12pt;">To promote ICT entrepreneurship in
agriculture among the youth, the International Institute of Tropical
Agriculture (IITA) Youth Agripreneurs group runs an incubator programme,
trainings, and establishes ICT entrepreneurial activities itself. The incubator
programme equips startups to establish profitable businesses that solve
agricultural problems using ICT.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">An e-commerce platform has also been
setup for the sale of agricultural produce for farmers, buyers and others along
the value chain. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">The impression one gets about IITA Youth
Agripreneurs (IYA) is that it has been very effective in using e-agriculture to
attract youths to agriculture. Developments have been positive. Young people
must take centre stage in farming not for just for transforming and growing the
agriculture sector but for sustainable development in Africa. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">Youth
unemployment is one the rise and in view of the terribly low proportion of
young people in farming, IYA is a welcome development. The youth and ICT
entrepreneurship is angle is quite forward looking. Essentially, this
innovative group has shown that using efficient tech and the building of
capacity, young people can run agriculture as a business. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">There is however a need to increase the local
content in the technologies being adopted to ensure sustainability.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">Regular monitoring and evaluation is
also essential for such a program making such an impact in agribusiness. This is
the only way to know if it is meeting expectations and also if it can meet future
needs. For example is what is being done about scaling and replicating
successful models? It is expected that performance is evaluated periodically. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">It is also important that IYA goes
beyond its traditional circles to engage with other stakeholders, especially in
tech to widen coverage and deepen impact. Inclusion is critical. Engagement is
required beyond the usual circles. Open mindedness and willingness to listen to
different ideas are critical in this age.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">IYA has realized the importance of using
social media and ICT tool to help in building groups of young professionals in
agriculture. Already the group leverages such platforms to share relevant
information. Monitoring of trending issues in the sector and greater capacity
building are all critical. IYA is also advised to improve the level of
awareness on its activities. It should be noted as well that the digital era demands
that the use of these tools and infrastructure should go along with a culture
of responsiveness and action.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">There is no doubt that young people are
change agents required to revive and grow the sector through modern
technologies and innovations. The future of agriculture is the youth. IYA is an
encouraging and commendable effort towards sustainable agriculture. It is not
only a formidable platform of young AgriTech professionals, but can be a wind
of change in the agricultural sector. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b>IITA Youth Agripreneurs, the future of Agriculture? 1</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Established by International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), the IITA Youth Agripreneurs (IYA) is an exciting youth-in-agribusiness initiative. Bringing young graduates from diverse backgrounds together as a group, the initiative encourages young people to embrace the business angle of agriculture and harness the potential of e-agriculture in Nigeria and other parts of Africa.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8Wnndid8s2dlCsxkL8AanlI0EIrByV5f0m-52J8fM1z1cTu2q6jBE9ggqc_GM-ql2ghf-HZCz5ZL1u0J63_1stHYs4cgVOzPlhyphenhyphenOlBycKYXmcFyL_fVefE5mihQAfG1PqpmQRVKPNezg/s1600/iita+agribusiness.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="539" data-original-width="540" height="319" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8Wnndid8s2dlCsxkL8AanlI0EIrByV5f0m-52J8fM1z1cTu2q6jBE9ggqc_GM-ql2ghf-HZCz5ZL1u0J63_1stHYs4cgVOzPlhyphenhyphenOlBycKYXmcFyL_fVefE5mihQAfG1PqpmQRVKPNezg/s320/iita+agribusiness.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is one of the enterprising approaches designed one, to reorient the youth towards productive and profitable engagement in agriculture and two, to encourage and facilitate the use of ICTs in agriculture. Sustainable agriculture in Africa demands the active involvement of the youth. But the perception has always been that farming is a domain for old people. A new generation of farmers will apply tech innovation to various aspects of the agriculture value chain. Initiatives such as IYA are therefore avenues to build the capacity of young people in sustainable agronomic practices, and bring attention to ICT and other entrepreneurship opportunities in agriculture.</div>
<br />
<b>A Focus on Youth</b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
IYA builds youth capacity by conducting agribusiness incubations and offering training and mentoring to young people. As a result promising collective enterprises have been created. In stimulating the engagement of youth in agribusinesses, the group connects with rural communities who benefit through employment, out-grower opportunities and income generation.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The IYA ICT unit established its own business system which facilitates the adoption of modern farming methods by farmers. This unit has helped to enhance agriculture outcomes by making use of ICT tools, like drones. Drone delivery services adopt the use of drones to capture aerial pictures, produce video documentation of field activities, monitor crop performance, and perform other research-related functions.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<b>Innovative Practice and Activities</b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to reports, IYA trains young agripreneurs in Nigeria on the use of a ‘smart tractor’ - a powerful machine that serves farmers throughout the farm production cycle. Fitted with a GPS antenna, local SIM card, hard drive and telematics capabilities, the Smart Tractor is able to connect to the powerful cloud software of Hello Tractor, even in rural environments with low connectivity. IYA earns income through the provision of support services and the delivery of training to entrepreneurs, farmer organisations, and individual farmers.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
Practical capacity management in a nutshell is one
way to describe this book. Deriving optimal value from tech infrastructure has
also been a concern in the enterprise environment. Simple and yet painstakingly
written, it is an excellent guide for everyone who needs to get a full grasp of
what it takes to plan and implement the capacity management process for
organizations. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
Throughout the book, it is clear that Dominic has
rich expertise in capacity management as the book flows with credible and real
life nuggets from his first hand experience. Planning for capacity to meet
enterprise needs cannot be underestimated. The balance of focusing on core
issues and yet making critical issues easy to understand and simple is one of
the things that makes this book so appealing. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
Particularly impressive is his detailed attention
to capacity management fundamentals, measurement and data, planning model,
planning, reporting and auditing of the process. Rather than empty bells and whistles,
he uncovers and highlights the substance to ensure readers focus on issues that
matter.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
The single thread that runs through the book is information and
insights that will help readers take quality decisions in the important management
of capacity. At the end of the day it is about achieving capacity management
goals and adding value.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
Full of revelations that should interest anyone
with more than a passing interest in the optimum management of infrastructure
and computing resources, the aspect relating to the cloud computing and machine
learning era, prepares the reader for the ever changing and increasingly digitally
enabled world we live in. Indeed it is not just a book for today, but additionally
addresses the impact of new technologies and how the future demands on business
can be met efficiently and effectively. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
IT infrastructure, service delivery, cost/performance
balance, business requirements and targets are all within the capacity
management realm. As an information technology consultant, I know that many lack the guidance and
detail this book provides. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
It is welcome, practical and outstanding in how it
brings all these important issues together in one place. Rich in content,
enjoyable to read, it is a simple yet captivating book! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
I highly recommend this
book to anyone with an interest in capacity management. 5 stars for an
excellent guide!</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
Opportunities are being missed, while potential wastes away. Voice
communication is critical but the issue of concern is the driving force of the
knowledge economy - innovation! It is about the foundation for innovation and
related opportunities in the tech enabled world.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
Fintech, ecommerce, edtech, ehealth and other
disruptive areas are all children of innovation. Embracing status quo is more
of pretense than impact. Time is ripe for purposeful disruption to reach
dreams, to foster inclusion and harness potential. Wasting the young is to
waste the country. Brimming with energy and ideas our youth could do with
infrastructure bridges to create the new things this country needs, the new
that will make us more competitive, the new that could transform the planet.
Change reality and connect ideas to reality with infrastructure. I joke not.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
Fastest growing market? Rapid teledensity growth?
There has been progress, undeniably. But is this sufficient for our needs? I
don’t think so. Expand the present vision. For one thing, inclusion and quality
still lag ridiculously behind. Branded as the broadband “do-it-all”, the
National Broadband Plan (NBP) clearly needs to be reviewed and updated. Policy
is again being outrun by the environment.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
It's not all about doom though; explosive
opportunity is in closing the gap. Policy changes and political will must come
into play to ensure the states in Nigeria and FCT get with the program - to be
smart and digital. The right thinking at the authority and policy level matters
- broadband is not a luxury but a fundamental human right.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
As you apply for jobs consider your own
ambitions and plans. Jidaw asks: Newcomer what is your plan? Your focus is your career. Big
or small organization, local or international, the job is a tool not your final
destination. Beginner or experienced professional, everyone needs to have a
plan. The job is a vehicle to get you to where you are going. Just any job will
do? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
Jidaw insists that you must have dreams. Everybody needs a dream. You can’t limit your
career to a job. Everybody needs a roadmap; otherwise the dream remains a
dream. Planning brings your dreams from the back to the front of the brain.<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"> </b>It keeps you coordinated - all your
activities fit in and reinforce each other. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
Without a career plan how do you search? Or will
growth just happen? Lack of experience does not mean lack of ability to plan.
Planning provides direction. It is certainly better than jumping on whatever
comes along. Rather than shooting aimlessly in the dark make your efforts
focused and purposeful. Get your career growth perspectives right and develop
an effective career plan. Jidaw advises that it may not appear glamorous but it is meaningful and
needed. As grow your career you will appreciate the need to plan. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
Applying for the job because of the announcement shouldn’t
be the only thing in your mind. How does the job fit into your plan? Is the job
is in line with where you are going? It is important in planning that you have
ideas not just about how and where to search but also about how jobs will be employed
for strategic advantage.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
Jidaw recommends the following to make your plan effective:</div>
<ul>
<li>Have ideas that expand your thoughts past the narrow confines
of a fresh graduate looking for a job. </li>
<li>Make your mental involvement in the job
search and career development process big picture and future oriented. </li>
<li>There
are no dumb ideas. And it isn’t a crime to run out of ideas. </li>
</ul>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Fresh graduate, job searching? Are you doing what you can or doing whatever it takes? There is a big difference. <br /><br />You are young, new to the scene. But don’t sell yourself short. Your ability to handle the tough or unexpected can set you apart. Your qualification is essential for graduate positions. However, differentiate yourself by stepping above the degree. Your degree is simply a tool and is no guarantee of what you will do in real life, and how you will react to unexpected situations. You have a degree but forget the book qualification. <br /><br />An issue comes up with the bank’s servers you are supporting can you move fast, think on your feet and resolve the problem? The answer may not be in any book or classroom. Get past your academic and technical abilities. Why keep yourself in the box when your abilities are actually unlimited? If the pressure is high will you be able to take smart decisions about issues that affect the business in a calm and sound manner? There is a sudden and major change while handling a service request, how well can you read situations and make wise recommendations? <br /><br />
<ul>
<li>There is no substitute for someone who is quick to grasp the dynamics of the work environment and can react appropriately. Always look for opportunities to share experiences with interviewers and employers on how you have resolved tough or unexpected encounters in the past, maybe in school or in public. </li>
<li>But stepping up to carry the weight and show initiative is not a reflex action for many. A major disturbing issue in the job search arena is the dearth of people who think and act like solution providers – most prefer to highlight rather than address problems. “Someone else will solve the problem.” Sometimes challenges could spring from changes in the IT world, system faults, dealing with organizational issues, unfriendly clients or uncooperative colleagues. </li>
<li>Stand out by showing that you have the mental edge and desire to solve problems– you don’t have experience but you can think, resolve issues and make things happen despite the presence of obstacles. With or without experience, those with real desire give birth to positive action. The work environment is reality not an excuse for incompetence. Employers don’t want to be reduced to nannies or babysitters. </li>
<li>In the interview do you show that you are dependable, or do you come across as a baby holding tight to toys in a pram? Want the fresh graduate job? Lack of desire is not a selling point. Where is your hunger? Just doing the routine, doing what you can? Where is your sense of urgency? </li>
</ul>
Your qualification means nothing to the employer without the relentless determination of an intense do-whatever-it-takes attitude. Grow up and take charge.<br /><b>HAVE YOUR SAY: </b>Do you agree with the do-whatever-it-takes approach? Please share your thoughts and opinions.<b><br /></b><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Searching for the right opportunity often
means you are doing several things at the same time. Jidaw believes you get results when you put efficiency into the job search. It is important to be
organized and professional. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Ensure the right balance. In taking advantage and
preparing you should identify priorities and critical issues. As a Network
engineer you have done a good job of identifying networking opportunities that
match your needs. But Jidaw asks: does it end there? </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Beyond your technical qualifications
are you prepared for other requirements of the opportunity? What have you done
about the requirement for “a letter of recommendation” from your educational
institution? You have sent your CV before the deadline but was it wise to
send it in the wrong format? </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">It doesn't make sense to focus only on one key
aspect of the hunt while neglecting other important areas. You see, very often
opportunity search requirements do not just appraise your technical
competence. They are also used to assess your ability to follow instructions
and cooperate with others. It can serve as a measure of professionalism. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Attending meetings and interviews won't amount to much if your resume and other
related materials are flooded with spelling and grammatical errors. Your
approach therefore needs to be professional and coordinated.</span><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;"></span><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"> </span></li>

you’re using to prospect and position yourself for opportunity? It’s about hard
(substance) and soft (presentation). You have SCJP, MCSD and quality experience
to back up the tech certifications – so you are solid. </span></li>

opportunity, solid expertise is not enough? How do you present yourself in
interview situations? Do you communicate well – written, verbal and body
language? And the question really is: what is the message you send if your
documentation is untidy, rough and cluttered? What is the message you send if
you forget to include important dates with your achievements? And it could the other
way too – your presentation is solid but substance is lacking. Be organized and
professional</span></li>
