Original abstract

The study investigates how folklore can contribute to Agri entrepreneurship and enhance sustainable development using the example of group farming by youths in Malun village of the Nun Division of the West region of Cameroon. Many researchers of diverse disciplines have made a lot of efforts to identify obstacles to sustainable development in African Communities. Some have identified certificate-oriented education, lack of basic skills in youths and an enabling political climate as foundations to poverty and the general misery plaguing many African communities but the proposed solutions to these causes seem to either lack adequate implementation, supervision or are not friendly to the environment and its users. Given that there is a huge cry against poverty and food insecurity within this context of the post COVID 19 pandemic, this paper explores the significance of folklore to sustainable development from the perspective of group farming, an indigenous approach to large scale farming and economic growth by youths in Malun village. Approaching the issue of sustainable development from the perspective of folklore has not received adequate scholarly attention from researchers. Through the participant observation and interview methods of data collection and using new historicism and performance theory as our lenses of analysis, the study found out that the oral culture of a people harbours indigenous knowledge systems that form a basis for an advanced technology which can easily be understood from the perspective of the people’s productive life style. The study assumed that group farming, which is an aspect of Malun folklore, practised by youths is a relevant foundation for Agri entrepreneurship, which is a significant machinery in sustainable development.
