From Farm to Plate: Financing Change, Changing Finance - SWF 2012
Thu, March 29, 2012; 11:30 - 13:00
Location: Edmond Safra Lecture Theatre
As consumer needs, expectations and preferences evolve and more closely reflect the social, environmental and quality standards they value, new opportunities and challenges are being introduced for developing, smallholder farming enterprises–the majority of producers for many key commodities. Linking smallholder producers with increased market demand offers opportunities to raise livelihoods, but at what cost to actors along these supply chains? This panel will explore how innovative finance can be developed to align interests and increase benefits for producers.
