INITIATIVES
FARMERS DIALOGUE
Farmers Dialogue
- Think globally, act locally.
- Where farmers renew their calling to feed the world.
- Where Science and Economics are geared to human need.
Approximately 3/4 of the world's poorest people are farmers. Why is there so much poverty in an industry the world relies on?
Farmers dialogues aim to build farmer to farmer links across national boundaries and across set ways of thinking:
- To create fresh perspectives for our industry.
- To help farmers see themselves as an immediate road out of poverty for their community.
- To encourage the consumption of locally grown food.
- To strike a proper balance between farming and forestry in maintaining our soils.
