Supporting farmers and other stakeholders to manage with "shocks" in agricultural value chain
Shocks along agricultural value chain due to COVID-19 have severe effects on farmers and eventually food security. Disruptions in demand as well as other intermediaries have led to losses in farmers and created uncertainties for upcoming farming season. How might we fill the gaps along agricultural value chain by facilitating demand, supply and intermediaries better?
Areas to Focus
- demand-supply facilitation
- inputs, credits for upcoming farming season
- demand forecasting, pre-collection (?)
- storage and distribution
- other information
- knowledge sharing (experts, peer-to-peer)
