FOR ALL OF OUR PROJECTS, OUR GOAL IS TO HELP SMALLHOLDERS

 Who Are Smallholders?

* They are small-scale farmers who manage small areas, using mainly family labor for production, and using part of the produce for family consumption.

* 80% of the farmland in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia is worked by smallholders.

* They make up 60% of the people in the world (1.5 billion) who survive by working the land. 

* Women make up 43% of the labor force of smallholders.  

* Smallholders provide 80% of the food supply in their communities.
