MESSAGE
India has achieved incredible progress in food produc on and produc vity despite the challenges of
dwindling land and water resources, fragmented landholding dominated by the small and marginal farmers,
adversi es of climate change and globaliza on of agriculture trade. The country has evidenced a transi on from
food scarcity to a food surplus situa on. Presently, India is leading in the produc on of many agricultural
products. Thanks to the technological advancements, scien fic research, innova ons and mely extension
services witnessed in the country. Despite the advances in agriculture sector across the globe, the food security
is s ll a challenge in pockets of many developing na ons of Africa and Asia. Building on India's strength of having
an effec ve Agriculture Innova on and extension System, the USAID proposed to partner with the Government
of India to promote global progress in the area of food and nutri on security.
India and the United States signed the new agriculture partnership agreement to help the developing
countries in achieving evergreen revolu on and ensure global food security. The Triangular Coopera on effort
involving Africa and Asia was conceived for adap ng technological advances and innova ve solu ons to
address food security challenges in developing na ons. In this direc on, the progress made by The Feed
TheFuture India Triangular Training (FTF ITT) Program implemented by USAID India and Na onal Ins tute of
Agricultural Extension Management (MANAGE) is laudable.
Training over 1100 officers from 21 partner countries through 44 training programs during 2016-20 is a
significant achievement which I believe will start showing desired result in the field in the coming years. The
partnership between USAID India and MANAGE to complete the program in the most professional way to
benefit the partner countries is heart-warming. The efforts of all the partner training ins tutes and coopera on
of trainees to make the program successful is praiseworthy.
I congratulate the Director General, MANAGE and her team for exhibi ng highest standards of team
work, professional commitment in mely comple on of a program of global scale such as the FTF ITT. I wish that,
the journey of success of FTF ITT will grow from strength to strength with the trained officials showing con nued
commitment in addressing the challenges of global food security.

Message
Over the past seven decades, India and the United States of America have shared a mutually rewarding
rela onship. The United States Agency for Interna onal Development (USAID) has partnered with the
Government of India to enhance the agriculture sector as a driver of the Indian economy and to alleviate
poverty in rural areas through the deployment of technologies and human and ins tu onal capacity
development in agriculture and food systems. This produc ve partnership resulted in India's designing and
leading the Green Revolu on, which increased agricultural produc on, through the transi on from tradi onal
agriculture to the use of high-yielding varie es of seeds and associated technology. The collabora on and
coopera on between American land-grant universi es, the Indian agriculture research and extension
ins tu ons, and the private sector resulted in India becoming a food self-sufficient country, a net exporter of
staple foods across the world, and the establishment of India agricultural universi es.
Since 2010, the Governments of India and the United States have engaged in several partnerships to
sustain the impact through approaches such as the “Evergreen Revolu on,” to address global food security
challenges. This partnership was implemented with the objec ve to transfer Indian technology and innova ve
solu ons to address agriculture produc vity and food security issues in Africa and Asia.
During the period 2013-2015, the implementa on of the Training in Agriculture and Enterprise Development
program benefi ed 230 agricultural professionals from Kenya, Liberia and Malawi and in turn thousands of
smallholder farmers. Following on the successes of the previous programs, the Government of India and the
United States expanded the program through the implementa on of the Feed the Future U.S. India Triangular
Training (FTF ITT) program during 2016-2020. The program is part of the US Government's global Feed the
Future ini a ve with a goal to address the root causes of hunger, poverty, and malnutri on by employing
proven strategies to increase farm produc vity and income for achieving large scale and sustainable impacts.
The objec ve of the program in India is to enhance individual and ins tu onal capaci es of eleven African and
nine Asian countries. The execu on of this program was successfully carried out by the Na onal Ins tute of
Agricultural Extension Management (MANAGE) which partnered with 30 Indian agricultural research and
educa onal ins tu ons to deliver 44 sector-specific trainings, which benefi ed 1144 mid- to senior-level
agricultural professionals, with over 40% of them being women. The training strengthened their knowledge
and experience on specialized farming prac ces such as agricultural marke ng, dairy management, food
processing, and ways to prevent post-harvest crop losses that resulted in improved agricultural extension
programs that have benefited thousands of farmers in Africa and Asia.
The tes monials received from senior government officials in the partner countries, their Ambassadors to
India, agriculture extension officers and farmers have all confirmed that the program is in line with the Indian
philosophy of 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakamm” (the world is one family) in addressing food security challenges
globally.
I sincerely thank the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare for the long-running and successful
rela onship that has made tremendous accomplishments in support of the agriculture sector in India. I also
want to extend my warm gra tude to MANAGE for the outstanding implementa on and administra on of the
U.S.-India Triangular Training Program.

Message
The agriculture sector con nues to be the vital sector to boost the rural income and sustain food and
nutri onal security in most countries of the globe. In this context, agricultural strategies that improve livelihood
of the poor, maximize produc vity in agriculture and create employment opportuni es for the rural popula on
are cri cal. The role of training and capacity building of agricultural extension personnel through skill based and
hands on experien al learning is not less important.
The 'Feed The Future India Triangular Training' (FTF ITT) is an outcome of the shared responsibility of
two powerful democracies of the world- India and the United States. It envisaged the role of training as a means
to drive the desired changes in the spread and adop on of technologies and innova ons in agriculture and
allied disciplines in Asia and Africa. The program was designed and delivered by the joint efforts of USAID, India
and Na onal Ins tute of Agricultural Extension Management (MANAGE) with the support from the Ministry of
External Affairs, Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers welfare, Government of India.
The onerous task of training 1144 officers from 21 countries in four year period was rendered possible
because of the technical and scien fic strength of 31 reputed ins tutes belonging to ICAR, CSIR, CGIAR and
other na onal ins tutes. The program touched upon the diverse topics in agriculture and allied sectors to
develop the human skills in most comprehensive manner. The program adequately recognized the role of
women in agriculture by training 444 women officers. This will serve as a social capital for partner countries.
The training program is not an end in itself, but is the start of knowledge sharing to the farmers and
ground level extension personnel by the master trainers. With this idea, the trainings were designed with a
unique feature of Back At Work Plan (BAWP) to address prevailing problems pertaining to agriculture and allied
disciplines. Most of the trained officials have taken the BAWP with highest commitment. The best implemented
BAWPs with notable impact at the ground level are documented as 'Success Stories' which will serve as a
reference for dissemina on and upscaling of the demonstrated technologies in partner countries.
It is heartening to note that, all programs were completed within the meframe and all training
programs were consistently rated very high by the trainees. The Program Management Unit (PMU) team at
MANAGE has responded to the challenges of global level training program with poise and professionalism. I
congratulate all the team members for this success. I also appreciate the POCs, Heads of partner Ins tutes,
trained officials in rising to the task of taking larger responsibility of addressing the global concerns of food and
nutri onal security in the world.
I wish success to everyone in their future endeavors.

Preface
The training and capacity development ac vi es are pivotal in dissemina ng innova ons and technologies in
agriculture. Despite several obvious gains, the long gesta on period of capacity development ini a ves to
witness the desired outcome and low visibility of trickling-down benefits have made them a less preferred area
for inves ng resources. However, the Feed The Future India Triangular Training (FTF ITT) implemented with the
collabora ve effort of USAID India and Na onal Ins tute of Agricultural Extension Management (MANAGE),
Hyderabad took the mantle of addressing the global food and nutri onal security problems through training
and capacity development approach.
To see the FTF ITT program concluding frui ully as per the me line is very sa sfying. The recollec ons of FTF
ITT trainees sharing about their good experiences during their training in India will always remain close to our
hearts. The trainees understood the challenges and constraints of Interna onal training programs of being with
trainees and trainers of diverse background and tastes and made use of the unique opportunity to see and learn
new things and take it forward to implement in their work places.
The FTF ITT final report and the two volumes of success stories are tes mony to the commitment of all
stakeholders involved in FTF ITT program to contribute to the progress of agriculture in their regions. Program
Management Unit (PMU), MANAGE appreciate their efforts and congratulate them for their success. We also
appreciate the points of contact in partner countries, officers nomina ng the trainees and family members of
trainees for helping them to par cipate in the FTF ITT trainings.
I was fortunate to be given the responsibility of leading the PMU team for implemen ng FTF ITT program at
MANAGE. The constant guidance from Mrs. G. Jayalakshmi, IAS, Director General, MANAGE, Mrs. V Usha Rani,
IAS, Former Director General, MANAGE and Mr. Mustapha El Hamzaoui, Director, Food Security Office, USAID
India were of immense help. The credit for the success of FTF ITT also goes to the predecessor Program
Directors Dr. P. Chandra Shekara and Dr. Saravanan Raj, colleagues at MANAGE and all the staff of PMU,
MANAGE. The heads of the ins tutes and program directors of all FTF ITT programs took keen interest in
delivering the program to the expecta ons of the FTF ITT trainees. Sincere thanks to all of them.
All the support received in successful comple on of FTF ITT is gratefully acknowledged.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
India has made tremendous progress in the field of agriculture and allied sectors by unleashing
the poten al of technological innova ons and their effec ve transfer to the farming community.
Despite the enormous challenges like large number of smallholder farmers, huge labour force
depending on agriculture, disguised unemployment, and migra on of youth to urban areas, etc.,
Indian agriculture has been successful in keeping pace with the food produc on demand of the
growing popula on. Most of the countries in Africa and Asia face similar challenges and constraints as
in India. Therefore, it was thought that, the success of the Indian agriculture can be aptly replicated in
African and Asian countries through the transfer of successful innova ons and technologies. In this
context, Feed The Future India Triangular Training (FTF-ITT), a collabora ve program of the United
States of America represented by USAID and the Government of India represented by the Na onal
Ins tute of Agricultural Extension Management (MANAGE), was designed and implemented with the
objec ve of addressing human and ins tu onal capacity gaps to deal with the food security
challenges in selected African and Asian countries. This was pursued by impar ng need-based training
to mid to senior-level agricultural professionals from public and private sectors on recent
technological advances and innova ve solu ons from Indian agriculture.
A er consulta on with the Government of India, 11 African and 9 Asian countries were
selected to benefit from the FTF ITT program. The program implementa on started with an
exhaus ve training needs assessment. The capacity gaps and training needs from these countries
were enlisted and analyzed for priori zing training themes. From this, 44 training programs (of 15 days
dura on) were designed on topics such as agribusiness and management, agricultural marke ng,
agricultural extension and policy issues, animal husbandry, dairy, poultry and fisheries, women
empowerment, plant health management, mechaniza on, value addi on and processing in
hor culture crops, climate-smart agriculture and natural resource management. Successful
implementa on of these trainings benefited 1144 mid- to senior-level agricultural professionals from
20 African and Asian countries.
MANAGE designed and used a Standard Opera ng Procedure (SOP) for par cipant selec on,
training process, training methods and tools, evalua on and feedback of the program etc. MANAGE
collaborated with 31 state-of-the-art Indian research and academic ins tu ons to organize the
training sessions. Private companies were also involved in some trainings, by invi ng their experts as
resource persons and by organizing exposure visits to their manufacturing/ research facili es. The
trainings were par cipatory in nature, which included lectures, panel discussions, group discussions,
case studies and field visits. The Back at Work Plan (BAWP) was an in-built feature to guide and
monitor the trainees to work on a specific problem in their region by iden fying an innova on or a
new technology learnt during the training. The training effec veness and par cipant learning was
assessed by feedback, pre-training and post-training tests during the course of training period.
The FTF-ITT program showed incredible success in terms of trainee par cipa on across 20
countries with fair gender representa on (38.8%), and involvement of private sector and civil society
organiza on representa ves. Substan al cumula ve increase in the knowledge level of the trainees
(52.07) and very good feedback of the trainees (9.08 on a scale of 10) indicated the efficiency and
successful organiza on of the program. Majority of the trained professionals have ini ated ac vi es
to apply their newly acquired knowledge in their respec ve countries. As a sign of recogni on and
mo va on to the trainees, selected examples of successful execu on of BAWP have been
documented and widely distributed by MANAGE. The first edi on of the FTF ITT success stories was
published by MANAGE in 2018 and the second one in September 2020. MANAGE used social media,
including facebook and whatsapp, to ensure con nuous sharing of knowledge among the trainees,
and with the Indian experts who trained them.
I
Besides successful execu on of the BAWP, the FTF ITT program has created impact in several
countries because of the collec ve efforts of the trainees and the commensurate support by their
Governments or from the development agencies. Few of the major accomplishments of the FTF ITT
are;
u Ministry of Agriculture, Irriga on and Livestock (MAIL), Afghanistan started the Kisan Call
Center on the lines of Kisan Call Centre (KCC) in India. FTF ITT program trained the officers to
run the KCC in Afghanistan.
u The officials working in Department of Agriculture, Government of Nepal and USAID funded
KISAN-II project have been trained under FTF ITT programs to support the ICT ini a ve in
agriculture in Nepal.
u In Uganda, trainees have taken up the task of promo ng entrepreneurship and collec ve
farming to improve their economic independence through thri and saving and small
enterprise promo on, based on the Kudumbashree model. In Kenya also, the kudumbashree
model of collec ve approach in small entrepreneurship has been started as 'Imashree'.
u The technology of soil and water conserva on through GAPs and promo ng the adop on of
legume inter-cropping, mixed cropping, farm pond and conserva on llage prac ces are
being promoted in Tanzania, Uganda, Botswana, Malawi, Kenya and Nepal.
u The training programs under FTF ITT at ICAR-CIAE, Bhopal, ICAR-IISS, Bhopal, ICAR-CIFT, Cochin
etc. promoted the adop on of small scale machinery in Africa especially in Kenya and Uganda.
u Promo ng the spirit of collec ve farming, collec ve marke ng and coopera ve strength
through Farmer Producer Organiza ons (FPOs).
u The effec ve management of Fall Army Worm pest of cereals, especially in maize has been
promoted in the partner countries through the FTF ITT program.
u FTF ITT promoted the entrepreneurship and commercializa on of agriculture to make the
agriculture profitable, remunera ve and sustainable in developing countries.
With the financial support from the USAID India and the organiza on capacity of MANAGE, the
over-arching success of the FTF-ITT program is indica ve of the strength of partnership between
USAID and MANAGE to organize interna onal training programs to reach more target beneficiaries
across two con nents. The program experience will serve as a baseline for building on the
development ac vi es ini ated by the trainees and upscale the same for further dissemina on. With
the network of trained manpower in two con nents, the agricultural challenges can be tackled at
grass root level with focused clientele approach. In the future MANAGE, Hyderabad can lead the
efforts on tackling the developmental challenges and issues affec ng global food security,
strengthening the ins tu onal capability in secondary agriculture ac vi es, consultancy and policy
advocacy for developing na ons, mul -ins tute training and capacity development ac vi es for
interna onal ins tu ons and officials.
The report on the FTF ITT consists of the details of all the stages of program planning, training
curriculum, implementa on and monitoring which will be shared with all the relevant stakeholders
focusing on effec ve extension delivery strategies and who impact the farming fraternity. The
annexures will serve as database for future programs on training and capacity development in
agriculture field for global level outreach. It is also worth men oning that, the reading of this report is
complete only with the reading of the two documents of compila on of success stories based on the
BAWPs of FTF ITT trainees.

1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 IMPORTANCE OF TRAINING AND CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT IN AGRICULTURE
The agriculture sector is vital to the economic development of most developing na ons in
Africa and Asia. Transforming subsistence agriculture into a modern sector has demonstrated
agriculture's poten al as a driver of growth and development. The agriculture sector in most
developing countries is the major contributor to employment and gross domes c product. However, it
is affected by several challenges like dwindling resources, unsustainable produc on prac ces,
unemployment, market failure, etc. If agriculture has to prosper, the piece-meal approach of
diagnosing and addressing the problems of individual component of agriculture system is not
sustainable. In the words of Mahatma Gandhiji, “Poverty is the worst form of violence”. A holis c view
of the issues and an integrated approach to offer solu ons to the problems of third world countries is
essen al in the interest of the whole globe. The holis c approach we are referring to should
accommodate the training and capacity gaps of the officials involved in agricultural extension and
agricultural technology transfer to complement the efforts of developmental ini a ves in these
countries. This approach should lay equal emphasis on produc on, environment and ecological
concerns, processing and value addi on, marke ng and supply chain management and profitability
through agri-business ventures. In addi on, the social issues are also equally important and relevant in
the changing context of agriculture developmental challenges. The community approach, the gender
sensi ve prac ces in agriculture, farm mechanisa on through custom hiring centres, etc. will aid in
driving the social change in a desired direc on.
1.2 BACKGROUND AND GENESIS OF THE PROGRAM
A new agriculture partnership between the United States and India announced in November
2010 during the State visit of the US President Mr. Barack Obama to India is a giant effort in mee ng
the above global developmental challenges. The partnership talked about achieving the evergreen
revolu on to ensure Global food security. The effort included Triangular Coopera on adap ng
technological advances and innova ve solu ons to address food security challenges in Africa and Asia.
Further, it includes areas such as health, energy, women empowerment and sanita on under the
statement of guiding principles on triangular coopera on for global development. Despite the
enormous challenges such as large number of small holding farmers, huge labour force depending on
agriculture for their livelihood, disguised unemployment, and migra on of youth to urban areas, etc.,
India's progress in the field of agriculture and allied sector is praiseworthy. Most of the countries in
Asia and Africa face many similar challenges and constraints. Therefore, it was thought that, the
success of the Indian agriculture can be aptly replicated in many countries of Africa and Asia through
the transfer of its successful innova ons and technologies. At the same me, the very advanced
technologies developed and prac ced in the developed West may not be a good fit in the socio-
cultural and economic background of majority countries in Africa and Asia. This idea gained
momentum over the years and the strength of Indian innova ons and technologies for Africa was
tested through a pilot project “New Dimensions in Agricultural Extension Management” for
agriculture professionals during 16 July - 3 September, 2015. The ini al pilot project focused on three
African Countries i.e., Kenya, Liberia and Malawi with poten al to expand throughout the African
Con nent in later stages. Na onal Ins tute of Agricultural Extension Management (MANAGE),
Hyderabad and the Na onal Ins tute of Agricultural Marke ng (NIAM), Jaipur conducted seven
training and capacity development programs covering 219 execu ves from Kenya, Liberia & Malawi.
Feedback surveys conducted among the par cipants of the beneficiary countries was overwhelming
and showed the merit in expanding its scope for bigger region covering broad areas of agriculture.

Fig.1: Inaugural ceremony of FTF-ITT program on 25 July 2016 at New Delhi
Driven by the success of the pilot project, the new agriculture partnership conceived the Feed
The Future India Triangular Training (FTF ITT) to address the training and capacity gaps in the field of
agriculture and allied discipline with the following broad objec ves.
1.3 OBJECTIVES
1. To conduct a demand analysis and assess the capacity gaps in the field of agriculture and allied
sectors in the beneficiary countries of Africa and Asia.
2. To address human and ins tu onal capacity gaps to deal with food security challenges in select
third world countries by training field level extension func onaries on recent technological
advances and innova ve solu ons from Indian agriculture.
3. To guide the officials during training to plan and implement the back at work plan in their
respec ve countries based on an Indian innova on or technology learnt during the program.
1.4 LAYOUT OF THE REPORT
The report is organized into four chapters. The introductory chapter gives a brief about of
importance of agriculture in the economy of developing countries and the role of training and capacity
development to drive the growth in agriculture sector. The chapter also gives a brief account of
background and genesis of the program with the objec ves set for the program. The second chapter
'Program planning and implementa on', gives details about the methodology followed in demand
analysis, partner country selec on, trainee selec on, partner training ins tute iden fica on and the
training approach followed in delivering the FTF ITT program. The third chapter 'Key
accomplishments' focuses on major results and targets achieved under the program and presents the
feedback of the par cipants about the trainings and the impact. The major impact points and outcome
as a result of the efforts of implemen ng back at work plans by the trained execu ves are also included
in this chapter. The chapter four ‘Lessons learnt and way forward’ provides the list of lessons learnt and
prospec ve ac onable points as way forward for MANAGE and other training ins tutes. The
annexures I-VI follows a er the chapters.

2. PROGRAM PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTATION
2.1 DEMAND ANALYSIS AND TRAINING NEED ASSESSMENT
To achieve the program objec ves, an exhaus ve demand analysis survey in 17 countries of
Africa and Asia was conducted by the experts from India and partner countries. The demand analysis
survey was conducted for Afghanistan, Botswana, Cambodia, Democra c Republic of Congo, Ghana,
Kenya, Lao PDR, Liberia, Malawi, Mongolia, Mozambique, Myanmar, Rwanda, Sudan, Tanzania,
Uganda and Vietnam. The capacity gap from the 17 partner countries were enlisted and analyzed for
priori za on of training themes. Complete details of the results of the demand analysis and the
training need assessment are provided in annexure-I. From the exhaus ve inventory of training needs
Sudan
Fig. 2: List of partner countries from Africa and Asia under FTF ITT
of all partner countries, the training themes were priori zed to iden fy the relevant partner training
ins tutes in India to train the officials and facilitate field exposure visits and hands on prac cal training
sessions. The most common needs iden fied for training were on agribusiness and management,
agricultural marke ng, agricultural extension and policy issues, animal husbandry, dairy, poultry and
fisheries, women empowerment, plant health management, mechaniza on, value addi on and
processing in hor culture crops, climate-smart agriculture and natural resource management.
2.2 TARGET AND OUTREACH OF THE PROGRAM
The program set an ambi ous task of crea ng a pool of 1400 trained manpower (later revised
to 1100) in the field of agriculture and allied sciences through 44 demand driven training and capacity
development programs. The partner countries in the program included: Afghanistan, Bangladesh,
Botswana, Cambodia, Democra c Republic of Congo, Ghana, Kenya, Lao PDR, Liberia, Malawi,
Mongolia, Mozambique, Myanmar, Nepal, Rwanda, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda and Vietnam
(Fig.2). The program ini ally proposed to conduct thirty two, 15 days dura on training courses
(excluding travel period) at select Indian ins tu ons with an average of 25 par cipants in each
program, and twelve, 10 days dura on trainings (excluding travel period), in selected partner
countries in Africa and Asia, for up to 50 par cipants per program. However, owing to a rich research
and training exper se of Indian Agriculture ins tutes and feedback from the par cipants of the
partner countries on the effec veness of hands-on and field visit based trainings in India, it was
decided to convert 10 partner country training programs to trainings in Indian Ins tutes. Two partner
country training programs were organised for interna onal par cipants- one each in Afghanistan and
03
Uganda while the remaining 42 programs of 15 days dura on were organised in India thereby
successfully achieving the set target to organise 44 training programs. Through these 44 programs,
1144 field level extension func onaries were imparted knowledge and skill on different themes of
agriculture and allied subjects (Annexure-II). Each of the training course module of the program
focused on themes or sub sectors of agriculture in which Indian ins tu ons of repute with proven
scien fic knowledge were iden fied to offer such training and to ensure that it effec vely responds
to the target countries' capacity gaps. The method of training, training features, training curriculum,
etc. are discussed in subsequent sec ons.
2.3 TRAINING PROCESS
USAID India represen ng the US Government and the Na onal Ins tute of Agricultural
Extension Management (MANAGE), Hyderabad represen ng Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers
Welfare, Government of India were given the responsibility of implemen ng the FTF ITT during
2016-20. The Feed the Future - India Triangular Training Program (FTF ITT) was officially launched
on 25th July, 2016 at New Delhi to start the training and capacity development programs. The first
step of the Training is the announcement of the FTF-ITT programs and their wide publicity in target
countries. During the launching of the FTF ITT program, first three Interna onal training programs on
“e-Extension: ICT Applica ons in Agricultural Extension Management” (in Kabul, Afghanistan during
10-19 October, 2016), “Public Private Partnership in Agricultural Extension Management” (in
MANAGE, Hyderabad during 17-31 October, 2016) and “Emerging Trends in Marke ng of Fruits and
Vegetables” (at Na onal Ins tute of Agricultural Marke ng (NIAM), Jaipur, Rajasthan during 16-30
November, 2016) were announced. A er the announcement, the programs were adver sed
through MANAGE website, e-mails and social media and communica on to Points of Contact (POCs)
in partner countries. The subsequent training programs were announced phase wise. The first phase
was announced on 28 December, 2016 consis ng of four training programs. From the experience of
organizing three training programs, during 2016 and the discussion during a workshop with selected
training partner ins tutes, a Standard Opera ng Procedure (SOP) was designed for organizing
subsequent FTF ITT programs. In this SOP, the method of training, curriculum designing, training
material, training tools, guidelines for expenditure, type of accommoda on and reimbursements
and allowances for par cipants, back at work plan, etc. were described and elucidated to maintain
highest standard of training in terms of delivery and logis c support. The SOP also aimed to give
clarity about roles and responsibili es of all stakeholders like partner training ins tutes and POCs in
all partner countries so that, the larger objec ve of the program is not compromised. All the 44
training programs were announced in seven phases as per the meline developed to keep the
programs in a properly staggered manner so that, there is no overlap of programs and there is
sufficient me to take care of monitoring of preparedness of partner ins tutes about training
curriculum designing, literature support, logis cs, etc. The themes addressed during the program
implementa on have been discussed under key accomplishments.

2.4 PARTICIPANT SELECTION
As decided in the SOP, the par cipants from all the 20 partner countries were nominated by the
POCs of their respec ve countries. Each country has one or two POCs for FTF ITT. The POCs receives the
adver sement of the programs announced by the Program Management Unit (PMU), MANAGE, India
and send suitable nomina ons for the no fied training programs. The PMU team at MANAGE
scru nizes the par cipants according to their eligibility criteria like Educa onal qualifica ons,
professional experience in the relevant subject/ field and able to speak and understand English. Once
the par cipants are finalized based on their applica ons and telephonic verifica on, the invita ons
were sent to the eligible and suitable candidates. The candidates were expected to submit their visa,
passport copies, physical fitness reports and document on self-authorized terms and condi ons for
clearance. On receipt of the duly signed documents, the travel ckets were booked by MANAGE and
PMU team in close coordina on with local coordinators of the training ins tutes to facilitate the travel
arrangements and stay during the 15-day training program at different partner training ins tutes in
India.

2.5 TRAINING APPROACH TO ADDRESS DEVELOPMENTAL CHALLENGES
The training approach was adopted to meet the expecta ons of the vast geographical area
represen ng 20 countries from Africa and Asia. The program provided opportunity for the
par cipants represen ng Government, Private and Non-Government sectors. This was basically done
to mo vate the private sector and Non-Government sector to work in close collabora on with the
Government ins tutes in implemen ng their back at work plans. The mul -ins tute engagements in
the developmental works will be demand driven, responsive to local problems and implemented
through resource sharing approach. The FTF ITT program encouraged the women par cipants to
a end the training as women have an increasingly important role in the developmental issues at the
community level. Some of the programs were meant exclusively for women empowerment to address
the gender concerns in developing countries. The list of training needs iden fied from the demand
analysis exercise in partner countries was exhaus ve. Any single ins tute delivering the trainings on
such diverse aspects from agriculture and allied sector is unlikely to yield desired results and cannot do
jus ce to the expecta ons of the trainees. MANAGE being a lead program implemen ng ins tute,
invited the premier na onal level ins tutes with proven domain exper se and logis c support to train
par cipants from different geographical and cultural diversity. Wherever, the demand was more for a
par cular theme, a single training ins tute was allo ed more than one program (Eg. Kudumbashree
MANAGE created a special cell Program Management Unit (PMU) for coordina ng, implemen ng and monitoring of the FTF ITT program. The
PMU was headed by the Program Director who is assisted by a program team consis ng of Program Manager, Program Execu ve and a Junior 05
Program Execu ve. The other necessary support to the PMU was extended by the administra on and finance division of MANAGE.
for women empowerment, NIPHM for plant health management, ICAR-NDRI on dairy management,
etc.). In all, 30 partner ins tutes worked in collabora on with MANAGE and USAID India to complete
the targeted 44 training programs (Annexure-II). The complete list of 30 partner training ins tutes
(Fig. 5) is given as annexure-III. Brief profile of all partner ins tutes involved in organizing the FTF ITT
program is given as annexure-IV.
Fig. 5: Partner ins tutes of MANAGE in organising FTF ITT programs

The training programs were designed to be par cipatory in nature. Programs included a right
blend of lectures, panel discussions, group discussions, case studies and field visits. Each trainee was
expected to contribute ideas and take part in group ac vi es for effec ve par cipa ve learning. The
experien al learning methodology was effec vely incorporated with sufficient me for trainees to
prac ce the hands on skills in laboratories and also during field and exposure visits. A Back at Work
Plan (BAWP) was in-built in the program to guide the trainees to work on a specific problem in their
region by iden fying an innova on or a new technology learnt during the training.
06
2.6 BACK AT WORK PLAN
Back at Work Plan (BAWP) is a plan of work proposed by the par cipants of the FTF ITT training
to address one important agriculture problem in their jurisdic on of work. Broadly the BAWP is an
individual choice of the trainee to pick an important lesson which can poten ally offer a solu on to the
problem of their region. The trainers and subject domain experts from the training ins tutes will help
the trainees for problem iden fica on, analysis of problem, framing objec ves of work plan, iden fying
ac ons/ follow-up ac ons of work plan, an cipate the developmental challenges in their country,
working out strategies to work with superiors and subordinates, expected outcome and me required
to achieve the objec ve/s of work plan. A model of BAWP is given in figure 6. The ques onnaire
designed to orient the trainees and collect the data for their BAWP is given as annexure-V.
Fig 6: Back At Work Plan
2.7 EFFECTIVENESS ASSESSMENT AND FEEDBACK

The effec veness of each of the training was proposed to be monitored on two fronts. The first
was assessment of change in knowledge among the par cipants through Pre-training & Post-training
teacher-tests. The formula used to calculate the change in knowledge is as below.
(Post test Score-Pretest score)

Change in Knowledge (%) = X 100
(Pretest score)
The second aspect of the evalua on of each of the training was done by taking trainees'
feedback separately on the individual technical sessions and on the overall impression about the
program on a scale of 1-to-10 (1 being the lowest and 10 being the highest ra ng).
07
3. KEY ACCOMPLISHMENTS
3.1 TRAINING NEED ASSESSMENT THROUGH DEMAND ANALYSIS
Through the FTF ITT program, a demand analysis was conducted in seventeen countries of
Africa and Asia to iden fy the areas of training needs and capacity gaps (Annexure-I). Subsequently,
the training needs were priori zed and training themes were finalized to address the capacity gaps.
The table 1 gives the list of number of trainings organized under different themes. Some trainings were
conducted on a single theme (Eg. Climate Smart Agriculture) while some trainings were organized on
more than one theme. (Eg. Entrepreneurship for Rural Women, Recent Trends in Harvest and Post-
harvest Technologies in Fisheries, etc.).

3.4 BACK AT WORK PLAN PROGRESS BY TRAINED OFFICIALS

Back At Work Plan (BAWP) being an integral part of the FTF ITT program provided the
par cipants the scope for implemen ng the learnt technologies at their place. The trainees were
given con nuous technical support in implemen ng these BAWPs by MANAGE and the training
ins tute for 6 months a er they complete their training in India. This process was carried out with
utmost professional approach to ensure an over-arching success of the program. The execu ves
trained through FTF ITT Programs have shown considerable interest to work on their BAWP and they
are mo vated to give their best to be part of such a global pla orm. As part of this exercise, almost all
execu ves submi ed their back at work plan and commi ed to work on the same to address a
10
problem through a technology interven on. Majority of the trained officials have made use of
knowledge from the FTF ITT program in their day to day works. However, MANAGE has documented
the success stories from more than 100 such officers and published periodically in the Interna onal
e-Bulle n or Success story document. From these par cipants who reported progress of their BAWP,
selected examples of successful execu on of BAWP have been documented as success stories by
MANAGE. This exercise was done with an idea of recognizing the efforts of these officials and also to
mo vate other trainees and extension func onaries to take up the dissemina on of advanced
technological interven ons and proven innova ons to deal similar problems in their countries. The
first document of selected success stories of 40 trained execu ves under FTF ITT was published by
MANAGE in 2018. The second document of another 64 success stories is also compiled by MANAGE
for distribu on among the trainees and other stakeholders along with this report (September, 2020).
Among the different success stories of the program, few have made significant progress due to
the collec ve efforts of the trainees and the support by the respec ve Governments or development
agencies. Some of these examples are listed below.
Ø Ministry of Agriculture, Irriga on and Livestock (MAIL), Kabul, Afghanistan started the
Kisan Call Center on the lines of Kisan Call Centre (KCC) in India. Under FTF ITT, 71 call
center operators from Afghanistan were trained under FTF ITT to operate the Kisan Call
Centre (KCC) in Kabul, Afghanistan. All the trained staff are taking up different ac vi es
for suppor ng the informa on delivery to farming community in their country.
Subsequently, 19 officials were trained to upgrade their skill in extension advisory
delivery through ICT ini a ves especially through KCC.
Ø The officials from Department of Agriculture, Government of Nepal requested for
support on their KCC model to support farmers in Nepal. The officials working in
Department of Agriculture, Government of Nepal and USAID funded KISAN-II project
have been trained under FTF ITT programs to support the ICT ini a ve in agriculture in
Nepal.
Ø Mo vated by the efforts of women groups of 'kudumbashree'(meaning Kudumba-family;
Shree-prosperity in Malayalam) in Kerala, the trainees in Uganda have taken up the task
of promo ng entrepreneurships and collec ve farming to improve their economic
independence through thri and saving and small enterprise promo on. In Kenya also,
the kudumbashree model of collec ve approach in small entrepreneurship has been
started. They have started these ac vi es under a similar name “Imashree” in Nairobi
county of Kenya.
Ø The promo on of mechaniza on in the African and Asian na ons hold key to agriculture
sector development in these countries. Mechaniza on holds key for labour produc vity
as well as agriculture produc vity because of mely opera ons. The training programs
under FTF ITT at ICAR-CIAE, Bhopal, ICAR-IISS, Bhopal, ICAR-CIFT, Cochin, ICAR-CTCRI,
Thiruvanthapuram etc. promoted the adop on of small scale machinery in Africa
especially in Kenya and Uganda. The trainees have made efforts to design and promote
small prototypes of several machines seen in India to suit their local condi ons.
Ø Promo ng Good Agricultural Prac ces (GAPs) and focus on secondary agriculture
ac vi es in developing countries. The technology of soil and water conserva on through
GAPs and promo ng the adop on of legume inter-cropping, mixed cropping, farm pond
and conserva on llage prac ces are being promoted in Tanzania, Uganda, Botswana,
Malawi, Kenya and Nepal.
Ø Capacity Building for food security and farmer producer organiza ons and farmer
coopera ves. The spirit of collec ve farming, collec ve marke ng and coopera ve
11
strength was replicated in several countries by the officials trained at ICAR-NDRI, Karnal,
CCS NIAM, Jaipur, Kudumbashree, Thiruvanthapuram and MANAGE, Hyderabad.
Ø The effec ve management of Fall Army Worm pest of cereals through integrated
approuch , especially in maize through integrated approach has been promoted in the
partner countries through FTF ITT program. The training programs especially from
NIPHM, IIMR- Winter Nursery, and IIMR (Millets) in Hyderabad have spread the recent
effec ve technology to manage the FAW and also promote the integrated pest and
disease management for ecological safety have been promoted in most of the partner
countries in Africa, Nepal and Bangladesh.
Ø FTF ITT promoted the entrepreneurship and commercializa on of agriculture to make
the agriculture profitable, remunera ve and sustainable in developing countries. The
start-up to scale up, agribusiness management, the value addi on and post-harvest
training programs on hor culture sector organized under FTF ITT have greatly influenced
the trainees to work with a changed mind set and goal driven approach to address the
unemployment, malnutri on and labor and women welfare in their regions.
Ø Based on the exposure to policy reforms and their impact in Indian agriculture, many
trainees have influenced the reform process in agriculture marke ng, processing,
agribusiness and entrepreneurship, insurance and Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) in their
countries.
Ø MANAGE and USAID organized two interna onal webinars as follow up programs to help
them in implemen ng their back at work plans effec vely during covid-19 pandemic.
These webinars were designed a er a cross-country survey on the effect of pandemic on
agriculture in their countries. The webinars on the topic “Agricultural extension
strategies for Asian and African countries during covid-19 pandemic” and the “Core
competencies of extension professionals” were organised. The details of the webinars
are provided in annexure-VI.

4. LESSONS LEARNT AND WAY FORWARD
MANAGE has emerged as a strong ins tu on in fostering the strength of collabora ve
programs of interna onal standards. MANAGE with its organiza onal skills, brought 30 premier
ins tutes together in delivering the FTF ITT- a program benefi ng two populous con nents of the
globe. In this collabora ve effort, besides USAID India and MANAGE, 17 ins tutes of the Indian Council
of Agricultural Research (ICAR), 2 CGIAR Ins tutes, 8 na onal ins tutes and 3 agriculture universi es
were associated. During the implementa on of the FTF ITT program, several lessons were learnt and
many other opportuni es were created to address the global challenges of hunger, poverty,
unemployment, malnourishment, migra on, agribusiness ac vi es through processing and value
addi on etc. The important lessons learnt and way forward have been presented in this chapter.
4.1 LESSONS LEARNT
During the organiza on of FTF ITT, MANAGE has created an environment for itself and other
partner ins tutes to enhance their organiza onal skills in delivering the programs to the expecta ons
of the interna onal delegates and address the global developmental issues with Indian agricultural
innova ons and technological advances. The program gave an opportunity to understand the issues,
challenges involved in interna onal trainings and ways to address the problems. It was not possible to
organize exclusive training programs on few of the themes which were in huge demand (Eg.
Mushroom produc on technology and bee keeping and honey processing were the priority of 9 out of
17 countries). However, these themes were touched during the training programs on hor culture
themes.
The program was a great opportunity for learners as well as trainers to understand the
agriculture scenario from other countries as the program gave opportunity for trainees to share and
discuss the agriculture scenario of their respec ve countries. The group ac vi es helped the
par cipants to learn lessons from the diverse points of view coming from different socio-cultural and
economic background and professional experiences. The opportuni es in mul -country, programs are
enormous and the collabora ons among mul ple players is a way to succeed as they combine the
strength of partners and alleviate the weaknesses if any.
The program focused exclusively on training the execu ves through training and capacity
development programs in Indian training ins tutes. However, the partner countries did not have a
required follow-up and monitoring feature in the program. Future interna onal programs should be
designed to involve ins tu ons from third country to join hands with Indian training ins tu ons to
train the par cipants and monitor their progress.
From the feedback of the par cipants, it was evident that, the FTF ITT programs focusing more
on field visits and prac cal sessions were received very well. Therefore, the programs with
interna onal delegates should have more number of field visits, exposure to demonstra ons and
hands on prac cal sessions with less number of lectures and theory sessions.
The par cipants were expected to iden fy an important learning from the program and pick up
an idea or technology that poten ally offer solu on to a problem observed in their country. However,
most of the par cipants in their feedback men oned that, they need financial resources to adopt the
new technology and deliver the results. The program in future can allocate financial resources for
implemen ng their BAWPs.
In the current approach of the program, majority of the training programs were on single
commodity basis. However, agriculture in a rural set-up is quite dynamic involving interdependent
enterprises with many challenges spread across sectors. Therefore, the future trainings can design
programs based on mul -ins tute partnership to address developmental challenges in the third world
countries.
13
With passage of me, the cross cultural barriers among the coordinators and resource persons
involved in training programs started ge ng obliterated and the trainees were also feeling at home
with the increasing experience among the program team and training coordinators.
Since, most of the officials are engaged in their organiza onal ac vi es, carrying out addi onal
ac vi es as per their commi ed BAWP demands their me and energy. The selected successful
execu ves showing exemplary commitment in developmental works in their regions must be suitably
recognized with appropriate financial and professional rewards.
4.2 WAY FORWARD
· Tackling the developmental challenges and issues affec ng global food security in two
populous con nents through spread of poten al and cost-effec ve technologies and
successful innova ons from Indian agriculture. MANAGE in collabora on with global level
partners will explore the future opportuni es to carry forward the good work done under
FTF ITT.
· MANAGE will focus on strengthening the ins tu onal capability in secondary agriculture
ac vi es as they are having enormous scope to offer solu ons to major problems affec ng
agriculture. The Interna onal centre of excellence on agricultural extension and centre for
climate change and adapta on in MANAGE will collec vely find suitable pla orm to design
training modules on secondary agriculture for developing countries.
· MANAGE will take up the consultancy and policy advocacy for developing na ons with the
countries that have Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Ministry of Agriculture and
Farmers' Welfare, Government of India on the capacity building for policy formula on on
farmer producer organiza ons.
· Several countries have expressed the need for immediate transfer of technology rather than
inves ng their me and resources to develop a machine or a technology. Therefore,
Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India may explore the op ons of dissemina ng
technologies through MoU with other na ons that are in demand in their countries such as
soil tes ng kits, maize and cassava harvesters, small implements of cultural opera ons in
the field, etc.
· MANAGE will con nue to work on the strength of collabora ons developed with
Ins tu ons of ICAR, Na onal ins tutes and Interna onal ins tutes for mul -ins tute
training and capacity development ac vi es. The experts from India may be deputed to
follow up with the trainees for technical guidance through short courses in their countries.
Some important themes not covered under FTFITT may also be addressed through such
arrangement.
· With the accumulated experiences of organizing 44 training programs under FTF ITT,
MANAGE will start a special course on training and capacity development of trainers'
training program on designing and delivering interna onal training programs with
developmental challenges and their monitoring and evalua on. Effort will be made to
develop a team with core competencies on developmental studies and program planning,
implementa on and evalua on of global level programs.
