This presentation conceptualises the issue of smallholder efficiency in a holistic manner and a case study is presented to show that the transition from smallholder farming to agricultural business enterprise can be a reality. The case study is based on a programme Lifelong Learning for Farmers (L3F) supported by the Commonwealth of Learning and implemented by Kenya AIDS Intervention and Prevention Project Group (KAIPPG) and Makerere University, Uganda.
