Conceived for mobile phones, Agribusiness TV is the first web TV dedicated to African youth who innovate and succeed in agriculture. Agribusiness TV wants to show a positive image of agriculture by documenting success stories, innovations and lessons learned from youth initiatives in agricultural entrepreneurship. And it works. In just nine months since the project launch, over 50 videos have been produced, which have had over 2 million views. Agribusiness TV has a growing youth audience thanks to its strong social media presence and its mobile application. Feedback from the audience and also the featured entrepreneurs are showing impact.
