    The objective of this paper is to evaluate how Agrarian Reform Beneficiary Organizations (or ARBOs) participate in the value chain; how they engage actors along the value chain and what challenges do they face in the process. Farmer organizations, such as ARBOs, are important conduits for smallholders to participate specifically in higher value chain. This strategy enables smallholders to pool resources, jointly carry out profitable activities, reduce risks and transaction costs and operate on scale economies. However, many farmer organizations in the country have low level of organizational maturity and are mainly formed to access funding. Thus, smallholder participation in higher value chain is limited; the gains from value chain initiatives would impact only on a modest number of smallholders’ population and may not be sustainable in the long run. The paper suggests that farmer organizations and their participation in higher value chain can be improved by: one, enabling farmer members to commit to the organization through equity participation; two, enabling farmer organizations to establish enterprises that will generate income for members; and three, capacitating farmer organizations on building alliances/networking.

    We study the role of social learning in the diffusion of cash crops in a resettled village economy in northeastern Brazil. We combine detailed geo-coded data on farming plots with dyadic data on social ties among settlers, and we leverage natural exogenous variation in network formation induced by the land occupation movement and the agrarian reform. By using longitudinal data on farming decisions over 15 years we find consistent evidence of significant peer effects in the decision to farm new cash fruits (pineapple and passion fruit). Our results suggest that social diffusion is heterogeneous along observed plot and crop characteristics, i.e. farmers growing water-sensitive crop are more likely to respond to the actions of peers with similar water access conditions.

    This study examines the public-private-producers partnership (4Ps) model for agriculture value chain development implemented through Project ConVERGE of the Department of Agrarian reform. The model adopted a cluster approach whereby farmers groups are organized into clusters to coordinate their production methods to produce good uniform products and other business activities. The interventions or assistance from both government agencies and private sector are coordinated through the Project Management Office of ConVERGE at the central, regional and provincial levels. The study notes that the 4Ps is a form of facilitator driven agriculture value chain that is a suitable strategy given the level of agriculture development in the country. The 4Ps value chain interventions have addressed some of the constraints faced by small farmers to participate in the value chain. Farmer cooperatives that received the interventions specifically on farm equipment and processing facilities reported increased production, expansion of production area, improved mobility and less dependence on traders. However, markets remain limited and the cooperatives still lack the volume and quality of production that is required by major buyers including exporters. The key challenges include the lack of effective extension services including organizational training; inadequate capital and credit access of farmers cooperatives; limited subsidy for infrastructure development and other value chain interventions; weak cooperatives or farmers organizations; and poor geographic conditions. Government plays a major role in addressing these challenges. It needs a coordinated plan among partners agencies for extension and capacity building. Given bureaucratic problems and other institutional constraints, there is also a need to have a good selection of private sector partners both as service providers and financing partners. Markets access can be improved through links with financial institutions and agro-input dealers and through development of brands and certification. In the case of farmers organizations, they need to strengthen their savings and insurance programs to enhance credit access and to hedge against climate shocks.
