Abstract (sommario):
Rice is an important commodity and the availability of rice supply in Indonesia must be maintained, because rice is the staple food of the Indonesian people which must always be fulfilled at all times. However, the fact is that the average productivity of rice produced by farmers is still low. Low rice productivity reflects the capacity of farmers in rice farming. The aims of this research are: (1) to know the level of farmer's capacity? and (2) to find out what factors that affect the capacity of farmers. This research was conducted in Kabupaten Lampung Tengah with the number of respondents as many as 100 farmers. The data analysis method used is multiple regression analysis. The results showed that the level of farmer's capacity was in the medium category. Factors that have a significant effect on farmer’s capacity are farmer’s’ age, farming experience, farmer’s motivation, community support, farmer group support, and agricultural extension support, while formal education, non-formal education, cosmopolitan level, land area, and family support have no significant effect on the capacity of farmers in rice farming.

Abstract (sommario):
Usually, commodities shift occurs from food crops to commercial crops, such as horticulture with the aim of improving the welfare of farmer’s life. However, a different situation happened in Sedong Subdistrict, Cirebon Regency where mango farmers switched to paddy cultivation which is a non commercial crop. Most mango farmers began to abandon mango cultivation and made paddy cultivation as their main livelihood. Therefore this research aimed at analyzing the factors underlying the farmer’s decisions to abandon or continue mango cultivation and describing the potential and constraints of mango cultivation. Samples taken were 65 farmers in Sedong Subdistrict, Cirebon Regency consisting of 30 present-grower of mango who also experienced paddy cultivation and 35 past-grower of mango who switched to paddy cultivation. The research method used is the survey research method with data analysis using descriptive statistics and crosstabulation analysis with the fisher exact test. The results showed that the factors related to the farmer's decision to abandon or continue mango cultivation consisted of age, farmer's perception of mango cultivation, risk taking attitude, land tenure status, land area, and farmer group membership. Mango farming has easy transportation in the marketing activities provided by traders, as well as ease of access to credit bunt only for large scale farmers. The constraints felt by farmers in conducting mango farming consist of limited capital for small farmers,

Abstract (sommario):
South Konawe Regency, as an agricultural region with a large population and a dominant proportion of households working in agriculture, pays attention to farmers' welfare as very strategic. One of the tools to measure farmer welfare currently used is the Farmer Exchange Rate (NTP). The aim of carrying out this research activity is to determine the farmer's exchange rate (NTP), and the factors that influence the farmer's exchange rate food crop and plantation sectors in South Konawe Regency. This research uses a quantitative research approach. The sample for this study was determined to be 600 farmers, consisting of 300 food crop farmers (150 lowland rice farmers, 85 corn farmers, and 65 cassava farmers) and 300 plantation crop farmers (105 cocoa farmers, 65 cashew farmers, 65 pepper farmers, and 65 coconut farmers). The sampling technique that will be used is multistage random sampling. To collect research data, use the observation method, questionnaire method, and documentary method. Data were analyzed using descriptive analysis, NTP analysis and multiple linear regression analysis. The research results showed that the Farmer Exchange Rate (NTP) in the food crop and plantation sectors in 2021 was 97.21% and 97.21% (NTP < 100), meaning that food crop and plantation farmers experienced a deficit. Production prices rose less than increases in consumption prices and production costs. The level of farmer welfare has decreased compared to the previous level of farmer welfare. The factors or variables of land area and farmer expenditure significantly influence the NTP of farmers in the field of food crops by 93%. The farmer's land area variable has a significant positive effect on NTP, while farmer expenditure has a significant negative effect on NTP in the field of food crops. Factors or variables of family responsibilities, income and farmer expenses significantly influence the NTP for plantation crops at 96%. Farmers' income has a significant positive effect on NTP, while family responsibilities and farmers' expenses have a significant negative effect on NTP in plantation crops in South Konawe Regency.

Abstract (sommario):
This study focuses on explaining the concept of farmers' cooperatives which contribute to raising the Omani economy, achieving security and food balance, and contributing to the eradication of poverty, hunger and unemployment. The aim of this paper is to find areas of deficiency concerning the implementation of farmer cooperatives in Oman. The study follows the philosophy of realism, as it is delivering real and accurate information. The text uses a mixed method by combining qualitative and quantitative. The research uses questionnaire showing the responses of farmers and ordinary people to collect the data. In addition, an interview showing the importance and the factor of implementing farmer cooperatives. This study uses interviews and questionnaire to gather the data needed to fill the gaps. The findings of this research add deep discovery to the previous studies, regarding the unawareness and knowledge among farmers about the importance, causes and positive effects of cooperatives among farmers and the negative effects that may occur to farmers for refusing to enter farmers' cooperatives and the factors of implementing farmer’s cooperatives. Additional research in this topic is needed for full understanding of making strong relationships and trust between farmers, which convince them to join farmers' cooperatives. The value of this study lies in raising the level of farmer's cooperatives in Oman because of its invaluable role in improving livelihoods, achieving sustainable development, increasing profitability and increasing productive efficiency by finding the common reasons that prevent farmers to join these cooperatives.

Abstract (sommario):
The sustainability of development in the agricultural sector depends on farmers as actors. There is a tendency for farmers’ children to be disinterested as farmers for a wide variety of reasons. This study aims to identify the perception of farmer children towards their interest in continuing their parents’ work as farmers and to analyze the factors that influence the chances of choosing to work as a farmer and not as a farmer. The results of this study are expected to be a reference for determining strategies that increase the interest of farmer’s children to become farmers. The data analysis method used consisted of a combination of both qualitative and quantitative analysis. This research was conducted in Muara Rungga Village, Pasemah Air Keruh District, Empat Lawang Regency, South Sumatra. This research method used the survey method. The sample frame in this study was paddy rice farmers with children aged 15-30 years. A simple random sampling method selected the total sample of 35 respondent farmers. The study results explained that the interest of farmer children to continue their parents’ work as farmers were included in the lack of interest category. The higher the age level of the farmer’s child, the greater the chances of the farmer’s child’s decision to work as a farmer, and the higher the level of education, the more significantly the events of the child choosing to work as a farmer. The findings of this study are that farm children are better educated and more skilled at using technology. The development of agriculture in the future cannot be as mediocre, and it must be completely changed according to the development of knowledge and technology so that agriculture does not seem challenging, dirty, and unattractive. Thus the farmer’s child will be interested in working as a farmer.

Abstract (sommario):
This paper considers how farmers perceive to climate variability impacts, and suggests that perception these impact responses is as important as understanding responses to climate variability impacts. Based on a survey of 215 rainfed farmers in Bengkulu Province, we tested two hypotheses regarding climate variability impacts: (1) that climate variability has negative impacts on rainfed farming based on farmer’s perception, (2) that age, formal education, farming experience, land area, and participation in farmer groups will influence farmer’s climate variability perceptions. Using a multiple weighted score analysis and linier regression model we found support for the two hypotheses and furthermore showed that most of the farmers agreed that climate variability has a negative impact on rainfed farming. Farmers' formal education and participation in farmer groups influence farmers' perceptions on the impact of climate variability. With farmer groups, farmers can discuss various problems that arise due to climate variability.

Abstract The drop in global rubber prices worsens farmer-level rubber selling prices, affecting rubber farmers’ economics. One of the efforts to develop the farmer’s economy is strengthening rubber farmers’ institutional aspects. This study will examine institutional strengthening to stabilize rubber prices at the farmer level and increase farmers’ negotiating power. This study employs a qualitative case study methodology. Data were descriptively examined. The findings of this study explain that the rubber prices decline in rubber farmers’ economies does not improve from time to time. The decline in rubber prices resulted in land conversion, decreased production, and fewer rubber farmers. On the other hand, rubber marketing institutions have improved rubber farmers’ price stability bargaining position and increased rubber farmers’ economy. This research implies that rubber marketing institutions through farmer associations can increase farmers’ bargaining position, maintain rubber price stability and contribute to the empowerment of rubber farmer commodity institutions.

Abstract (sommario):
The subsidized fertilizer distribution policy is still facing various problems. The government continues to make efforts to improve it, including through the farmer’s card mechanism. The research aims to analyze the development and problems of implementing farmer’s card, as well as formulating strategies to improve the implementation of farmer’s card. The study was conducted in Ciamis and Pati didtrict, 2019. The data collected includes primary data from interviews with 30 rice farmers, 4 kiosks and 2 fertilizer distributors, and secondary data from the Agriculture Office of the research location. Data analysis was carried out quantitatively and descriptively qualitatively. The results showed that the process of printing the farmer's card in Ciamis and Pati Regencies respectively 99.75% and 74.0% of the total proposed farmer’s card. The problems faced in the application of the farmer’s card are the incomplete data of farmers in the eDPFGN, the improvement of data on land tenure for each planting season, and the limited availability of EDC equipment at each fertilizer kiosk. To improve the fertilizer distribution system through the farmer's card, it is necessary to improve the validation of the eDPFGN data, infrastructure support and human resources at the fertilizer kiosk and farmer group level.

Abstract (sommario):
The United States is facing a rising average age of principal farm operators and a decline in number of beginning farmers. With numerous barriers and challenges resulting in many farm failures, a majority of beginning farmers are relying on off-farm income to support their households. Decision-making and farm business planning are difficult skills to develop and improve, and the ability to develop a plan to balance on- and off-farm labor could allow farmers to make more profitable decisions. In this study, a General Algebraic Modeling System (GAMS) is used to develop a labor management planning framework for use by Virginia's beginning vegetable farmers or service providers, such as extension agents, with the goal of improving total (on- and off-farm) profitability and farm viability. Study findings suggest that a willingness to work of 12 hours per day, 365 days per year and hired labor costs of $9.30 per hour, which is the national average for agricultural workers encourage a farmer to maintain an off-farm job, while a relatively lower off-farm wage or salary may encourage a farmer to work on the farm only. Lastly, higher hired labor costs may encourage a farmer to pursue his or her most profitable work opportunity, be it on- or off-farm, without hiring labor to maintain the farm. The model developed in this study may be used to plan multiple years of farm management to include anticipated changes in off-farm employment opportunities, land availability, product mix, and access to farm labor. The author suggests that beginning farmers who use this planning tool are able to make more informed decisions related to allocation of labor time and resources, resulting in lower failure rates for beginning farmers in Virginia. A user-friendly interface may be developed based on the study framework, to strengthen the results and increase the practicality of the tool.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
China is the largest grain producer and consumer in the world. Since introducing its open-door policy in the 1980's, China has become an increasingly important grain importing country. However, China's wheat imports have varied considerably from year to year. One key issue affecting China's grain imports is its large on-farm grain reserves. This thesis is intended to examine factors significant for China's on-farm grain stocks and shed some additional light on its potential impacts on China's domestic grain markets and grain import activities. The key finding is that Chinese farmers' grain supply is primarily from self-production. The Chinese government decrees that farmers be not eligible to purchase grain from government food agencies that control 70 to 80 percent of the total marketed surplus of grain in China. This policy plus the underdeveloped domestic grain and credit markets leads Chinese farmers to store a considerable amount of grain for consumption. The food- and income-security concern of Chinese farmers is found to be another important factor in Chinese farmers' grain storage decisions. The highly variable weather, a still developing infrastructure, and frequent changes in government grain policies all increase the risk faced by Chinese farmers, thus increase their food- and income-security concerns. This thesis finds that the increasing number of farm family members working off-farm can help reduce the quantity of on-farm grain storage because of the potential remittance from more stable off-farm earnings to the farm home. It is also found that farmers tend to store less as income increases due to changes in absolute risk-aversions of farmers. The last important finding of thesis is that Chinese farmers' grain storage is somewhat price-elastic, in contrast with suggestions by some Chinese economists that China's on-farm grain storage is primarily for food-security concerns and therefore generally price-inelastic. It is also found that additions to farm household grain storage is directly elastic with respect to household grain output.

This commentary covers three areas of enquiry: Entrepreneurship, Farming and Methodology. I present a synthesis of and focus on my recent publications in the area of farm entrepreneurship although other aspects of my work are discussed. I show how and why my research is predominantly focused on entrepreneurship within the farm sector. A discussion of my approach to research is followed by an examination of my role as researcher. The policy implications of the workare discussed. A number of key themes emerge. 1. Farmers are a particularly rich area for study in the area of entrepreneurial capability. 2. The myths surrounding farmers' capability to be entrepreneurial requires examination. 3. In order to enhance and develop farmers' entrepreneurial capacity they need to be able to help themselves through self-advocacy. 4. Farmers are business people in that they run businesses but in practice do not necessarily have well defined business skills. 5. The barriers to becoming entrepreneurial for farmers are greater than in other sectors. farm enterprise and hence the farmer have often been understood through the prism of economic determinism i.e. viewed as economic actors. In this sense entrepreneurial activity has been correlated with economic prosperity. The thesis develops a conceptual understanding Of the farmer as entrepreneur and provides an innovative theoretical framework based on a modelling process and taxonomy of the farmer which- enables. the complexities of the dynamic chang~ forces which act upon the life world of farm enterprise and hence the farmer has often been understood through the prism of economic determinism i.e. viewed as economic actors.

Abstract (sommario):
Agricultural producers face many sources of variability which can affect the cash flow, net returns, and economic progress of the farm firm. The risks which producers face and the risk management responses available to producers have been significantly affected by the 2008 Farm Bill. The Average Crop Revenue Election (ACRE) program appears to significantly risk management strategies and impact direct payments, marketing loans and loan deficiency payments. Less than fully equity in the farm business creates financial risk which may compound the effects of the business risks which all farmers face. Farmers typically combine production, marketing, and financial responses to risk and practice risk balancing. Past research has often failed to consider the sequential nature of the decision-making and knowledge which becomes available during the production process. For example, grain storage investments are often analyzed assuming storage will be used each year without considering the effect of alternative market situations.

Abstract (sommario):
Due to historical circumstances, the development of Lithuanian commercial farmer’s farms is slow; however, farmer’s farms are very important to the vitality of rural areas while developing agricultural commodities and goods. The purpose of this article – to analyze the structural changes in farmer’s farms and present the directions of future development. Structural changes in Lithuanian farmer’s farms during the 2005 – 2015 timeframe were analyzed while looking at the diagnostic indicators, which are the following: the number of farmer’s farms, the structure of farmer’s farms according to their size, the activity units of farmer’s farms, age of farmers, farmer’s farms sources of income. In order to study the statistical data, methods of systemization, logical analysis and generalization were applied. The analysis of the statistical data suggests that the following structural changes are taking place in Lithuanian farmer’s farms: the number of registered farmer’s farms increases and the farmers’ are getting younger. One of the most significant factors causing the structural changes in holdings – the EU financial support for the agricultural development and the changing customer demands. More and more often rural areas perform residential function and new living areas are developed. There is a predominance of the small farms (up to 10 hectares). This is mainly a result of the reform in agricultural sector at the end of 20th century. Many small agricultural holdings were established due to this reform. However, significant changes occur while choosing and/or combining the activity units of the farm: the number of farms specializing in crops increases, the number of the holdings focusing on livestock and combined farming (crops and livestock) is declining; also, farmer’s farms with diversified income or the activity units grow in number. Limited opportunities to intensify agricultural production in small farmer’s farms caused the fact that activities or income were diversified. The model of family farm remains; however, the relation between activity and the usage of family’s labour in farm activity changes.

Abstract (sommario):
Poultry farmers are faced with many problems that reduce their capacity utilisation. The challenges have made a lot of poultry entrepreneurs to leave the business compellingly. Many interventions have been applied to solve production problems of the poultry farmers but they have not given the desired results. Also, literatures on poultry production in Nigeria are many and growing focusing mainly on production, economic and marketing research questions. Few have linked the socio-economic factors of poultry farmers with production management and challenges. The research, therefore, analysed the effects of socio-economic characteristics of poultry farmers on selected problems of poultry farming. Two-stage sampling procedure was adopted. At the first stage, three states: Ekiti, Lagos and Ondo were purposefully selected and at the second stage, simple random sampling was used to select 320 poultry farmers in the three states out of which 307 were successful for analysis. Data were collected on 10 socio-economic characteristics and 5 production problems: adverse effect of climate change, disease incidence, high cost of transportation, high feeds cost and high cost of drugs. Frequency distribution, percentage and Probit model were used to analyse data. 76.55%, 63.84%, 68.73% and 67.10% of the farmers were male, married, into farming as main occupation and belonged to cooperative in that order. Poultry farmers using battery cage system have higher likelihood, 0.497, of facing adverse effect of climate change than the farmers using deep litter system while those in Ekiti State have lower likelihood (-0.506) of facing the problem of climate change than those in Ondo and Lagos States. The likelihood of having disease incidence declines with membership of cooperative and increase in years of experience among the poultry farmers with the coefficients of -0.705 and -0.035 respectively. Poultry farmers that are members of cooperative are less likely to have high transportation cost and high cost of feeds as problems from the coefficients of -0.525 and -0.726 correspondingly. Though the probability of having high cost of drugs as production problem increases with age of farmers, older farmers are less likely to have the problem and farmers that have poultry production as main occupation have higher probability of having high cost of drugs than those that are into poultry farming as secondary occupation with the coefficients of 0.156, -0.002 and 0.402 respectively. The study recommends that deep litter system of production should be encouraged among poultry farmers to reduce the adverse effects of climate change. Cooperative membership should be encouraged among the poultry farmers to reduce transportation cost and disease incidence on farms. Also, poultry drug related assistance should be given to the farmers that engage in the enterprise as main occupation which demands the identification of poultry farmers that are into the enterprise as main occupation. Key words: Climate change, Cost of feeds, Cost of drug, Cost of transportation, Poultry farmer, Southwest Nigeria

Abstract (sommario):
According to Romania’s National Rural Development Programme, the socio-economic situation of the rural environment has a large number of weaknesses – among which low access to financial resources for small entrepreneurs and new business initiatives in rural areas and poorly developed entrepreneurial culture, characterized by a lack of basic managerial knowledge – but also a large number of opportunities – among which access of the rural population to lifelong learning and entrepreneurial skills development programmes and entrepreneurs’ access to financial instruments. The population in rural areas depends mainly on agricultural activities which give them subsistence living conditions. The gap between rural and urban areas is due to low income levels and employment rates, hence the need to obtain additional income for the population employed in subsistence and semi-subsistence farming, especially in the context of the depopulation trend. At the same time, the need to stimulate entrepreneurship in rural areas is high and is at a resonance with the need to increase the potential of rural communities from the perspective of landscape, culture, traditional activities and local resources. A solution could be to turn vegetal and / or animal farms into social farms – farms on which people with disabilities (but also adolescents and young people with anxiety, depression, self-harm, suicide, and alexithymia issues) might find a “foster” family, bed and meals in a natural, healthy environment, and share the farm’s activities with the farmer and the farmer’s family: “committing to a regular day / days and times for a mutually agreed period involves complying with any required health and safety practices (including use of protective clothing and equipment), engaging socially with the farm family members and other people working on and around the farm, and taking on tasks which would include working on the land, taking care of animals, or helping out with maintenance and other physical work”

Abstract. Based on field survey data of 1448 households in 50 villages in Q area, this paper uses the endogenous transformation regression model (ESRM) to analyze the impact of farmers joining professional cooperatives on family welfare under counterfactual scenarios, and further examines its mechanism of action. The study found that: (1) Farmers’ participation in professional cooperatives produces spillover effects and promotes the increase of farmers’ welfare; (2) The welfare effects of joining farmers’ professional cooperatives are also related to the differences in the farmers’ own family endowments, with higher family knowledge and cultural levels and more labor, Farmers with a large number of migrant workers have higher welfare effects of participating in cooperatives, otherwise the welfare effects will be lower; (3) The number of patients in farm households, the number of farmers, the size of the family, the number of elderly people, whether to borrow money, education level, etc. Factors have a significant role in promoting the participation of farmers in the decision-making of farmers' professional cooperatives, while factors such as the number of laborers, the number of workers, and age have a significant inhibitory effect on farmers' participation in the decision-making of farmers' professional cooperatives; (4) The increase in the number of workers, the number of farmers and the decline in the number of laborers indicate The efficiency of cooperatives in this area is low, and there are unnecessary losses; therefore, farmers should be encouraged to participate in cooperative operations.

Abstract (sommario):
The livestock industry faces a shortage of workers due to aging populations and falling numbers of young farmers. Researchers have collected and analyzed big data, and attempted to use it to improve livestock farming practices and reduce labor costs. We developed a cattle behavior monitoring system, PETER, using edge-AI and low-power wide-area (LPWA) technologies. PETER enables us to detect behaviors of grazing cattle (e.g., foraging, ruminating, walking, resting). Conversely, in the development of conventional livestock breeding support systems, user requirements are defined in a top-down manner. Few R&Dprojects feature user-centered design (UCD) or consider interactions between actors (e.g., farmers, livestock, technologies). This study aimed to apply UCD to the raising of grazing livestock, and to develop a prototype system offering farmers more precise and less labor-intensive livestock management.Our study started with fieldwork at a small grazing farm in Japan, located on abandoned farmland about 700 km from Tokyo. Two Japanese Black breeding cows are being raised and managed by a farmer and the farm owner. The farmer is employed part-time. The owner lives in Tokyo, is a veterinarian, and decides how to manage the cows. The information used by the owner to make decisions, such as nutritional deficiencies, or signs of disease or estrus, is provided only by the farmer. We investigated how remotely located veterinarians or owners could notice abnormalities in cattle and decide how to treat them, without waiting to consult the local farmer. Our UCD comprised three rounds: sketches; mock-ups; and finally functional prototypes to test and validate our ideas and hypotheses on users. We developed a web-based app as a functional user-interface prototype of PETER, showing the cows’ behavior history, the farm calendar, and the estimated amount of pasture grass. This information alone is insufficient for the farmer’s or owner’s understanding and decision-making. Therefore, the app can notify the chat communication service originally used by the farmer and owner whenever PETER detects possibly abnormal behavior in cattle, such as a reduced daily foraging or ruminating or walking duration, or an increase in resting duration. This is to attract their attention whenever PETER detects something unusual about the cattle. The farmer can then provide supplementary practical information on the spot, and the remote owner can make decisions and give instructions on the spot. During the four-week user test with the functional prototype, 10 notifications were made to the chat service, eight of which were supplemented with further information, such as farmers sending photos, and six of which confirmed the owner’s instructions and advice to the farmer. Some of the responses were confirmed, such as the owner calling a local veterinarian when a cow had diarrhea.This study shows that when the cattle behavior monitoring system detects any unusual information in pasture-raised livestock, it notifies the communication tool used by the owners, enabling them to take action before the matter becomes serious, even if they are remotely located. This study also indicates that the UCD approach is effective in the raising of pasture livestock.

Abstract (sommario):
For several years, farmers in India have had little liberty in choosing markets and purchasers for their produce. All states in the country, except three, degree that marketing and selling of farm produce must be directed through state-owned mandis, retail markets where mediators (middlemen) crush farmers to increase margins. According to research, mediators have become dominating buyers of the agricultural market, resulting them to take control over the plight of the farmers and gulping all the profits. The farmers work day and night expecting a good yield. They use a lot of financial resources lending money and buying fertilizers, seeds etc. So, they have the right to enjoy every rupee gained on their corp. In this context, we propose a system which brings farmers close to the retailers cutting the middlemen. Our system consists of a mobile or web application which will serve as a platform for farmer the growers and retailers or customers to sell and buy their farm products. This system aims at giving a profitable price to farmers to their farm products cutting the middlemen. This allows the retailers or the customers to buy products from the farmers at a lower than the normal price. Farmer uploads their product with details and buyers view these details and book that product with in a time. The bidding system is suitable for bulk buyers who would like to bargain for a certain product. They will be able to bid on a product as well as view other bids. This will help them get products at a better price. The consumer can give a rating and review only after having purchased a particular product. K-Nearest Neighbours (KNN) is proposed to recommendation system based on common product ratings, and make predictions using the average rating of top-k nearest neighbours. These are visible on each item’s page along with the average of the item’s average rating. K-Means is used to overcome sparsity problems and to form user clusters to reduce the amount of data that needs to be processed.

Abstract (sommario):
This brief explores how efficient private sector-led contract poultry farming—where a farmer produces exclusively for one contractor—can boost the livelihoods of small-scale Indian farmers and support sustainable rural development. Noting the rapid growth of India’s poultry sector, the brief looks at how contract farmers benefit from economies of scale, shorter poultry farming cycles, and higher labor and capital productivity. Drawing on data from farmers in Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan, it analyzes the impact of the pandemic, looks at the barriers to working with a major producer, and shows how contract farming can reduce a poultry farmer’s risk exposure.

Abstract (sommario):
Many years of significant investment into the production and adoption of productivity-enhancing technologies and practices in agriculture have not yielded the desired results. Most smallholder farmers in Africa remain trapped in poverty. Having realised that addressing production challenges alone is not enough to impact the lives of poor smallholder farmers, resources and attention have now shifted to the marketing side of agriculture. Organising farmers into farmer producer organisations (FPOs), like clubs, associations and cooperatives, has been one of the strategies aimed at commercialising smallholder agriculture. In Malawi, smallholder farmers have been organised into FPOs of various types and sizes. This qualitative study interrogated the effectiveness of FPOs in Malawi in meeting their objectives, including the objective of enhancing commercialisation of smallholder farmers through increased access to farm inputs, markets, and agricultural extension and advisory services.

Abstract (sommario):
The expansion of smallholder farms into larger farm sizes is a key strategy for growing agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa. This strategy could simultaneously expand farm incomes while addressing poverty since the majority of farms in sub-Saharan Africa are smallholder farms. There is limited existing research on the possible role of conflicts in stymying the ability of smallholder farmers to transition into larger-scale farming and on the impacts of conflicts in areas that are not directly within active conflict zones. In this paper, we investigate the impacts of conflict on the ability of smallholder farmers to transition to larger scales in two regions that are not in a traditional conflict zone, by developing a household utility maximisation model to explain choices made by farm households in response to conflict.
