  • Develop well functioning markets through transparent information, fair prices, sound infrastructure and reduced speculation
  • Encourage co-operative approaches to marketing for smallholders
  • Improve smallholder farmers’ marketing skills through entrepreneurship training
  • Reduce market distortions to improve opportunities for all strata of agriculture worldwide
