Introduction
Audio-visual methodology is aimed at supporting and empowering people involved in the field of agriculture to define, promote and take full ownership of their own development, as learning is a life-long process.
Skills development is a key driver of socio-economic development. Mainstreaming of agricultural development efforts is crucial to ensure congruence and effective deployment of resources.
Grain production is a total farming process which includes a lot of activities and planning from planting to harvesting

A way to bolster agricultural production is to develop practical agricultural education systems. A powerful way of doing this is through the use of audiovisual modules which is a highly effective and tested methodology to approach, examine and impart knowledge.
This is a comprehensive series of modules that follow a step by step process and can be used in group training or self-study – and are structured according to visual training guidelines. This implies defining most of the terminology used and where necessary, supporting the visual storyline with graphics and animation to enhance the learning process and ensure that sustainable knowledge is gained in the learning process.
These modules are designed to do precisely what they are meant to do – and that is to support skills development.

Kursus Inleiding
Oudiovisuele metodologie is daarop gemik om mense betrokke by die landbou te ondersteun en te bemagtig om hul eie ontwikkeling te definieer, te bevorder en volle eienaarskap te neem, aangesien leer 'n lewenslange proses is.
Vaardigheidsontwikkeling is 'n sleutelaandrywer van sosio-ekonomiese ontwikkeling. Hoofstroom van landbou-ontwikkelingspogings is van kardinale belang om kongruensie en effektiewe ontplooiing van hulpbronne te verseker.
Produsente is blootgestel aan produksie risikos. Verskansing het ten doel om jou boerdery se risiko minder te maak en winsmarges op jou fisiese graan vas te lê.

Grasse, ook bekend as eensaadlobbige (monocot) of smal-blaar plante, is 'n belangrike komponent van weiding. Benewens as veevoer word gras ook vir baie ander doeleindes gebruik. Van die belangrikste spesies wat in die natuurlike grasvlaktes voorkom, is rooigras (Themeda triandra), buffelsgras (Panicum maximum en Panicum coloratium) en bloubuffelsgras (Cenchrus ciliaris)
