Les paysans s'organisent

Farmers’ Organisations - Farmer's organisations can take many forms: they can be formal or informal, highly structured or very flexible. While these groups of farmers are all different, they all emerged as a way to empower rural populations and help them improve their living conditions. This issue of AGRIDAPE looks at how farmer’s organisations are contributing to facilitating their life.

This issue also looks at successful cases of farmers organising and also at the limits and obstacles that farmers face when trying to organise. Through farmers’organisations, peasants win bargaining power, get more opportunities to learn and share knowledge. This is especially important in the West African context, and dealing with low literacy rates.
