Team grass-roots entrepreneurship

jeudi 26 janvier 2012

Agriterra helps setting up local groups that will establish good relationships with one another and with their surroundings. We focus on enterprising farmers who produce a surplus and want to take it to the market. Those farmers often have to find answers to a number of questions, like how do I react to the demand, how do I ensure better quality, how can I increase my production, how do I get access to different sales channels and how do I obtain necessary financing?
Challenges the grass-roots entrepreneurship team faces in providing advice to farmers are as numerous as the questions. Because good leadership and a healthy organisation are needed for local economic activity, the team also invests in leadership and organisation development. In all activities, the team pays particular attention to female entrepreneurs.

The linking to and knowledge of the Dutch agricultural sector plays an important rule herein. Advice from (female) farmer to (female) farmer is therefore characteristic to this team.
