Vertically some firms are engaged in food production, processing and marketing. Horizontally some firms are suppliers of inputs through direct cash sales, out-grower schemes and purchasing of agricultural produce. The role of the private sector is therefore very critical in ensuring food production and supply to households. The challenge is to understand how the private sector operates and the prevailing constraints so that appropriate measures can be put in place to create an enabling environment for the effective participation of the private sector in promoting national and household food security.\n\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%C2%B7_Non-Governmental_Organisations_NGOs\"><\/span>\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <strong>Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs)<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n\nInternational and local Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) participate in the implementation of both short term and long term interventions aimed at enhancing food security. The advantage that NGOs, as non state actors, have is that they do not operate for the profit motive. They also do not operate for political gain such that they may implement interventions not necessarily for the sake of seeking popularity but to address mutually identified problems. The NGOs also have the advantage of not being bureaucratic or practicing red tape as is the case with Government institutions. This makes NGOs to be suitable implementer of humanitarian interventions that address emergencies pertaining to food insecurity and other disasters.\n\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%C2%B7_International_Cooperating_Partners\"><\/span>\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <strong>International Cooperating Partners<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n\nThere are many international organisations that participate in enhancing food security.
