In 2005, the organization was set up to advocate for change in the policies and practices that perpetuate their poverty and hinder their progress towards achieving food and income security. Our mission is to develop beneficial programs favorable for increasing agricultural production, processing and, marketing through building and strengthening the capacities of farmers in policy advocacy and entrepreneurial skills and improve access to local, national and international markets and resources.The organization has over one million individual members and 1962 farmer-based organizations.
