No 333916, Policy Briefs from Purdue University, Department of Agricultural Economics

Abstract: We recommend: •Policy making processes be more inclusive and transparent; bring in key stakeholders such as farmers, private sector and civil society. •Aligning government’s funding and allocations to priority programs as set out and approved in national and sectoral plans. •Streamlining policies and laws within the broad agricultural sector to eliminate conflicts and contradictions. •Embracing data and evidence to inform policy formulation and projects/programs design. •Continuously strengthening the capacity of policymakers and technical officers to interpret and use evidence for better policy making implementation. •Incorporate monitoring and evaluation frameworks and implementation plans in policy and programs/projects design. •Facilitate government and private sector investment in infrastructure to enable service delivery.
