However, the participation of the youth in these programmes is low/poor and a small section has benefited from them. There are also limitations among the youth that hinder self-reliance and they can be categorized in terms of inadequate capital (finance), lack of project planning and management skills, poor methods of farming, perishability of the produce and unpredictable market. The researcher then made the following recommendations: The youth executive, in collaboration with youth chaplain and youth parish executive should plan and organize self-reliance seminars to equip the youth human capital in term of leadership, projects[s] planning and management skills. Self-help groups units which can help assist how to study and provide timely solutions to youth limitations to self (help) sustenance.
