access to information
Healthy, profitable businesses need a wide range of
information. However, information provided through
extension and support services (including NGOs) mainly
focuses on production technologies, and not on prices,
contacts, market possibilities or business management.
Market information systems are emerging in many
developing countries; many of these are difficult to
access and do not provide the information in time or at
affordable costs.
Information needs to be organised, packaged
and communicated in ways that are helpful to farmer-
entrepreneurs. Information is not always provided this way.
Content and the way it is presented and communicated
are all important. Radio, posters, leaflets and learning
groups can help farmers access the information they
need to be successful entrepreneurs.
