The FAO/CIMMYT e-learning course on “Small scale Mechanization Hire Service as a Business”
In 2018, FAO, in collaboration with CIMMYT, produced a training manual on ‘Hire service as business enterprises’ for small-scale mechanization service providers, which is available online and in hard copies. Besides, FAO got support from GIZ to convert the training manual into an e-learning course, which was successfully done by FAO Academy and now the course is available online for anyone who is interested in learning more and new things about small-scale mechanization hire service. It is important to note that one needs to register and log in in readiness to take the course.
