Registrace 23. 11. 2009
Established in 2006, AGRA is an African-led and Africa-based institution that puts smallholder farmers at the center of the continent’s growing economy by transforming agriculture from a solitary struggle to survive into farming as a business that thrives. Together with our partners, we are working to sustainably grow Africa’s food systems.
AGRA strengthens seed systems, develops and promotes sustainable farming practices, helps unlock trade and markets, and supports governments who lead their countries’ development. We work with farmers to adapt to climate change, increase soil health, and protect the environment. AGRA believes deeply in the urgency of reducing the inequality that women face in agriculture, and to unlocking the power and innovation of youth. More information: agra.org/

The lone Kwame Nkrumah Ideological Institute was quenched by the 1966 coup detat but I want to see the manifestation of PLO Lumumba Institute in all African states.
Thanks to you jah rastafari to have people such as you jah bless you man
My view to all of Honourable Mr. PLO Lumumba's conversations is for us as Africans to unite and start working for the best future and future of our generation, what are we waiting for? I ask you Mr PLO Lumumba to give clarity where and how to start this journey. Thank you our hero.
"Thank you, AGRA, for this enlightening podcast series and for your dedication through the CALA Program! 🌱 The conversation with Aisha and Dr. Agnes Kalibata on 'Let's Talk Food Systems' was truly inspiring. At the Green Thumb Movement, we deeply appreciate your commitment to transforming agriculture and fostering resilient food systems across Africa. Initiatives like these are crucial in driving sustainable change. Keep up the incredible work! 💚 #CALAProgram #LetsTalkFoodSystems #AGRA"
Lets go back to our natural way of doing things as Africans useing our small seeds,then we not need fertilizers. No more GMO. Use what God has abundantly blessed us with.
I still come back here to watch this video when I miss my dad.
This is so educating 🙂
PLO is a Genius
Our own....plo just come home and replace ruto
Enough is just an understatement to get just enough of your speech, Son of the Soil.
❤Enouggh is just not enough to make me stop listening to you Son of Africa.❤
It's time for change!
Multinational companies trying to sell us their inferior GMO seeds. We can continue with the 'green' revolution using our own traditional indigenous seeds that we have full ownership & control over. We know what these fake GMO seeds have done on the Indian continent by driving thousands of farmers into debt and suicide.
Bill Gates is the biggest sponsor of AGRA so literally he is making decisions concerning our seeds and land! Africa when...when ... when will we wake up and rise?
I'm from Southern Africa and I'm happy to listening to your speech so GOD bless you sir 🙏
Dear Africans, I think the time has come when we should, or be sincere enough to seek someone who is really qualified to lead our continent as Commissioner for the Chairmanship of the African Union. Prof.Dr.PLO Lumumber is an outstanding Candidate and Personality. I think we should try to rally behind Professor PLO Lumumber, if we really understand and know what it means to be qualified with experience having the necessary Academic background as well as consciencism to lead the Continent. Here is a man who neither any Academic Personality on our Planet, nor Proffesional could look down upon or challenge. Remember Africa is at the crossroads and we must choose a path towards 2063.
how I wish African can give such mind a chance to take this great content to the next level
P.O.L he our African philosophical leader including the rest of world ❤❤❤❤
We are not as dumb as the first world thinks about Africa. After all who appointed them first? Who is the second, to make us third? We are proud of you Dr Plo Lumumba
We are not listening to him now, just as our people then never listened to Kwame Nkrumah and Julius Nyerere. Prof. Lumumba has said all that we need to work on. Are we working in that direction that can move Africa forward? Prof. God keep you.
Great mind ,his IQ is more than 200
❤
African Agriculture scientists need to stop planning and start implimentation. Start experimentìg nòw and if your experiment fails, try again untiĺ you get it right. Be vigilant, the struggle continues!
❤😅😮😮😢😢🎉😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤😂😂🎉🎉😢😮😮😅😅😅😅😮😢🎉😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤
Why is it that I have no chance to ever meet plo lumumba. I have a dream. I want to consolidate this man's views albeit in a small way. This man needs radicals like me
53:05 AGRA is an offshoot company owned by racist billionaire Bill Gates & Monsanto. They have targeted Africa to distribute their diobolic GMO seeds that are being rejected around the world Why is Monsanto banned? Monsanto, and more recently its new owner Bayer, have faced a wave of lawsuits in the US over claims its glyphosate-based herbicide Roundup causes cancer. The use of glyphosate is limited and even banned in several countries around the world.7
Sweet potatoes are delicious too. Its sad but almost everything about our lives starts here. Politics and politicial leadership. Success will only be achieved when we decide that things must change. Work for our people or leave the job. Yes in case they have forgotten that they are employees of the people and not their owners. Until we insist that all the greedy politicians are prevented and desist from taking bribes from foreigner governments our people will never be free. Try them and throw them out of office to save ourselves.

Africa must demand Reparations and the ability to Develop Agriculture should be funded by those who Destroyed our food security Empire.Loans and Grants to Agriculture should be paid by The Colonizers and Exploiters of Africa.
Why when growing corn should one still buy seed for the next crops ? Growing up my Grandparents would grow corn and other things, and rotated the growing fields, but did not have to buy seeds for regrowth of new crops❤. Many of the growth/produce today have No Seeds and therefore Can Not yield additional crops/produce. Are the new product safe with nutritional value? Why did God Almighty make everthing having the ability to reproduce, with seed ?, AMEN
Many years ago, I received the WORD of the SPIRIT of the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY, saying "Save Your Seeds",❤. Please forgive me, only in recent years have I repeatedly spoken those words too others, 🙏 AMEN
He is a great person of Africa and I have a cousin who is a law student at UON and he does debates. He is also like PLO Lumumba the way he is very eloquent and genius but also knows a lot of history. The other day he was on TV making speeches
I have had a very high regard for you until I listened to you on Russia versus Ukraine. Your support for Russia says you have received money from Russia because you are too intelligent to believe Russia has a right to invade, kill and destroy a country simply because that country has decided not to follow your dictates but determine to follow democracy for their peoples @

God bless you my brother

Many years ago, The Word of God said, "Save your Seeds". Those few, if any seeds that are now found in todays' products are not representive of the best in produce and do not yield many seeds nor favorable and highly desirable favor. Natural methods still apply for best results. God Almighty still provides ❤, AMEN
AGRA is financed by Bill and Melinda Gates So it is dead on arrival sir. We need a body that is indigenous for our own agrarian revolution.
