Without empowerment a sustainable development of small farmers and their communities is impossible.
History demonstrates how millions of farmers have been exploited by profiteering middle men and large corporations during many decades. The lack of access to knowledge,
capital and market information made their personal and professional development simply impossible and consequently further increased the divide between the rich and the poor.
Fairtrasa has created a sustainable empowerment model for marginalized growers that provide them with all the relevant knowledge and information for their professional,
economical and personal development. We foster micro-entrepreneur development by connecting farmers with improved infrastructure, financing, and post-harvest management.
We offer producers a variety of trainings ranging from organic orchard management to obtaining relevant market information online.
Producer empowerment is essential to create a sustainable change that may lift them out of poverty.
