Dear all,
While in this e-conference, we are looking for your input on the specific questions the SALSA project, related to these questions, some of your fellow e-conference participants are also asking for your feedback, on issues related to the SALSA project questions.
As this e-conference acts as an enabler, connecting over 800 different stakeholders globally, we want to plug into your input, on questions from your fellow e-conference participants.
I would like to highlight two of these question, which related to topic #6 on “Policies and small farms" - Please share your input to the group, by sending input to [log in to unmask] - and kindly note the question number you refer to — Thanks!! - Peter.
Q6.1 From: Mayank Jain <[log in to unmask]> (India)
I want to know the opinion of fellow participants on "contract farming" with small farmers, through examples across different geographies.
How does it help the cause of farmers? Because agriculture is not only a business but a way of living too. Isn't becoming employee in your own land taking us at an alarming pace closer to industrial agriculture?
Q6.2 From: Irina Toma <[log in to unmask]> (Romania)
We're curious to hear whether you have any good examples of successful projects in your country:
- Do you know of any cases where agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems (AKIS) had good results on FNS and market integration?
- Were these AKIS systems using any interesting communication/ICT technologies and innovations?
- Are there other cases where innovation policies helped solve key issues related to Food Nutritional Security (FNS)?
