AKIS in action: Can AKIS interventions help farmers improve their income through direct marketing?
Farmers often capture only a small share of the value created in agricultural supply chains due to market structures that disadvantage small producers and the highly fragmented nature of farming. To address these challenges, this event highlights how targeted AKIS advisory services and networking initiatives can empower farmers to build income enhancing strategies and strengthen their position in regional markets.
The focus is on equipping farmers with the knowledge needed for effective direct marketing, supported by peer‑to‑peer learning and the development of cooperatives.
