Course Description
CERTIFICATE IN FRENCH BEAN
COURSE OVERVIEW
Certificate in French Beans offered at Finstock evarsity is a one-month online duration course. Finstock evarsity college is the examining body. The programs aim at bringing up educated, competent, and productive learners by providing specific skills needed for production to marketing of export French produce. Our education will help smallholder farmers to understand and manage farm operations in more efficient and competitive ways.
French beans, also known as snap or green beans, are a major export crop. French beans farming is fast-growing for both fresh consumption and processing. It’s not a must to become a full-time farmer to engage in this business. And you don’t need to be a landowner either. All you need to do is get mentorship from those who understand the business of exporting products, lease a piece of land near your current place of residence, hire a laborer and only visit the farm once or twice a week.
Mode of Delivery
Home and office-based media employing a variety of self-instructional electronic and online self-study material such as self – instructional study modules, online interactive devices and self-tests, cloud-based content, videos of lectures, agribusiness learning materials e.g. audiovisual and e -learning models
ADVANTAGES OF FRENCH BEAN FARMING
- French bean is an important source of income for many smallholder farmers who generally produce the crop for export to Europe.
- The crop is attractive to farmers due to its short cycle (it matures within 45 days of planting) and can be harvested three times a week for 3-5 weeks.
- French bean provides a continuous income stream to producers and, with proper farm planning, can generate income year-round.
- Due to the high returns per unit area, short production period, and regular income, export horticulture attracts higher youth participation compared to other farm-level enterprises
CAREER OPPORTUNITIES
- Shift Supervisor
- Green bean operator
- Senior agronomist
- Planning specialist
