It might sound like a cliché, but when it comes to agriculture, it’s amazing what cooperation and collective action can do.
This is the basic idea behind the BOND project, funded by the European Commission and carried out with the help of FAO. BOND, which stands for Bringing Organizations & Network Development to higher levels in the farming sector in Europe, aims to boost social capital in agriculture – or, put simply, the ability of farmers to work together towards common goals. This may sound obvious, but in many places, cooperation among farmers is not in the traditions or necessarily even in the culture of the country. In fact, in some places, cooperation among farmers can be considered innovative.
