Parallel Session 2              Action to bring small-scale producers into sustainable partnerships with agribusiness

Can small-scale producers and small and medium enterprises be partners in modern agribusiness? Are economic organizations of small-scale farmers suited - are there new business models? What can public policy do to help? What actions can modern agribusiness and service support organizations do to make this happen? Are there models that can be replicated? How best can this be done?
