FPG
The project has formed and supports approximately 4,000 Farmer Producer Groups (FPGs) to collectively access extension services including required inputs, access to finance and markets. Through FPGs the project is supporting public and private extension agents to reach more farmers more efficiently.
These FPGs:
- give smallholder farmers a collective voice
- can collectively demand extension services, required inputs, access to finance and markets
- enable public and private extension agents to reach more farmers more efficiently
- demonstrate the power of collective action
