In addition to these programmes, Parijat also offers broader assistance to African nations in an effort to raise the overall productivity of their agricultural sectors. For instance, offering training programmes and initiatives to improve capacity can assist farmers in better understanding and using the most recent inputs and technologies.

According to Shivraj, the agricultural sectors of both regions are actually benefiting from this partnership between India and African nations. Farmers can produce more food, make more money, and create more sustainable communities by increasing their productivity.
