Farmers groups and cooperatives play a vital role in strengthening rural communities. By organizing collectively, farmers gain better access to markets, resources, and technical support.
These groups promote knowledge sharing, cooperative purchasing, and collective bargaining, helping members improve productivity, profitability, and resilience against agricultural risks.
Farmers can negotiate better prices for inputs and outputs through group purchasing and sales.
Members exchange information on best practices, new technologies, and crop management strategies.
Collective organization enables easier access to finance, machinery, training, and government schemes.
