Environmental and agricultural expert Lepota Mafeka says inadequate investment in agricultural education is undermining food production in Lesotho.
Mafeka says the country has agricultural knowledge, equipment and resources that are not being fully utilised. He also says farmers lack adequate support, including affordable agricultural inputs, making it difficult to increase production and causing some farmers to abandon farming.
