Course Content

Week 1: Find the Business Opportunity
Participants look at how a local agricultural product reaches customers and spot where people face shortages, high prices, waste or unreliable supply. They identify three problems or opportunities, then choose one business idea and define who needs it. By the end of the week, they have a one-page business idea covering the problem, the customer, the product or service, and why it might work.

Week 2: Know Your Customers and Design the Business
This week is about checking that buyers really want the product. Participants speak with potential customers, compare competing products, prices and selling methods, and work out how their business will earn money. They also cover basic responsibilities around land, workers, communities and food safety. The output is a set of customer findings and a simple business model.

Week 3: Run the Business Efficiently
Participants plan how the product will actually be made and delivered. They list the inputs, workers, equipment and suppliers they need, work out the main production costs, and plan storage, transport, hygiene and quality checks. They also look at affordable ways to save energy and reduce losses. The output is a basic operations plan with an estimated cost per product or service.

Week 4: Manage Money and Access Finance
Participants find out whether their business can make money and how much funding it needs. They estimate start-up costs, monthly sales and expenses, calculate expected profit and break-even sales, and prepare a simple cash-flow forecast. They also compare savings, loans, grants and investment, and identify key financial risks. The output is a simple financial plan with a clear funding statement.

Week 5: Sell Products and Grow the Business
Participants decide where and how they will reach customers, whether through farm gate sales, markets, shops, restaurants, bulk buyers or online. They develop a marketing message, set prices and plan customer follow-up. They also review packaging, product quality and buyer requirements, set realistic sales targets and identify potential partners. The output is a practical sales and marketing plan.

Week 6: Put the Plan Together and Present It
Participants pull the work from the previous five weeks into one short business plan and financial summary. They prepare a brief pitch covering the opportunity, customers, costs, expected sales and funding request, and receive feedback from instructors, peers and invited practitioners. They finish by agreeing on actions for the next 90 days. The output is the final business plan, presentation and 90-day action plan.
