Abstract
This article, published on September 14, 2023, discusses how Young Africans face barriers in agri-food systems due to underfunding, high imports, and exclusion. To maximize opportunities, youth leaders demand policy reforms (tax breaks, trade integration), educational updates (TVET/skills), support for climate-smart agriculture, and tailored financial access. These steps will secure food supply.
