The vision of ICAAP is to implement sustainable programs to benefit smallholder farmers to increase farm productivity and income. ICAAP mission is to improve agricultural practices by catalyzing knowledge available worldwide from global research institutions, universities, R&D institutions, academia and channeling such through organizations and agricultural value chain intermediaries that are engaged with smallholder farmers. To further ICAAP's vision and mission, a knowledge management portal is being developed which serves as the knowledge interface and repository equipped with latest technological and application plug-ins to enhance knowledge backstopping, advisory services, and content management.
