The objective was to link stakeholders to the agents and the collaboration and linking them to the market. Besides discussing the challenges that the marketing agents faced in the Chibuku value chain, the study also considered the importance of training for the performance of the agents. The research design that guided the research problem comprised of transforming qualitative arguments into variables to create quantitative data.
