Factors unlocking markets to smallholders: lessons, recommendations and stakeholders addressed

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Mansholt Publication Series ((MAUSHOLT,volume 10))

Abstract

The book aimed to present results of investigations conducted to ascertain to what extent South Africa’s small-scale farmers can share in the expected gains of integration into the national and international markets. Related to that broad goal, it was also intended to identify what institutional and other reforms are necessary to enhance the effective and profitable participation of these farmers in the regional economy given the constraints that smallholder agriculture is facing in South Africa.
