Abstract
This paper discusses some useful approaches that will help in enhancing the proliferation of rural-based agro-industries for community development. The entirety of members of the rural household will have to be actively involved for progress to be effected. These development strategies will benefit them individually and collectively. This will also be a springboard for agricultural extension agents to effect diffusion of ideas.
Key words: rural, agro-industries, community development
