This training course was designed for government officials responsible for agricultural guidance and/or extension in African or Asian countries. Through lectures and on-site visits, participants learned about Japan’s agricultural guidance and extension system as well as its market distribution system. The course aimed to deepen participants’ understanding of the Market-Oriented Agricultural Extension/Promotion approach targeting small-scale farmers (the SHEP Approach*), enabling them to prepare action plans and implement related activities in their own countries based on those plans.
