Sustaining Low-Income Urban Agricultural Producers' Organisations in Accra, GhanaSubmitted by Femke Hoekstra on Fri, 03/02/2007 - 14:53
Irene S. Egyir In: UA Magazine 17 - Strengthening Urban Producers' Organisations Many small urban agricultural enterprises in Accra are members of informal organisations that invest little capital and yield low income, even though more formal alliances would ensure more effective bargaining and negotiations with urban authorities and other groups. This article describes the results of a study initiated by the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) in the city of Accra, Ghana. Each individual enterprise in a producers’ organisation is a stakeholder but not necessarily a shareholder in the operation. Trust is a key feature in informal alliances.
