The focus of capacity building has been shifting from primarily production to agri-business, based on market-led
integration and developing other value chains aiming at enhancing farmers’ income. It requires identification and
supporting of rural enterprises through technology and skill training, entrepreneurship training, market information,
access to institutionalized credit, and other infrastructure related facilities.The need for appreciation of farmers as actors
in the innovation system, and institutionalization of farmers’ wisdom for their scalability has been realized at most
levels. To develop farming as a business venture and to integrate the farmers’ innovations and opportunities in secondary
agriculture an action research study has been conducted in National Capital region of India. Institutional arrangement
for facilitation of networking among stakeholders and resources was opined as the foremost requirement for enhancing
farm income. The skills in social processes of group management and enterprise management were found lacking
among the farmers. The entrepreneurial and technical trainings led to income generating activities. The price spread
in major commercial crops showed that the longer chain reduced the producers’ share in consumer rupee drastically
which implies the production linkages need to be developed with involvement of all the stakeholders. Through
the lessons and opinion of respondents, maximizing farm profitability was found to be interplay of entrepreneurial
competencies, entrepreneurial climate, and farmers’ innovations which suggest convergence and synergistic linkages.
