Rita Klavinski, from Michigan State University Extension, explores the many benefits eating locally grown food has for both consumers and the community.

Products that are part of extensive supply chains traverse huge distances around the globe before reaching their final destinations. This process can include months of shipping, processing, packaging and storage before making it to shelves and into the hands (and stomachs) of consumers. Shorter times between harvesting and landing on the table mean the highest value of nutrition is maintained in the food; something Klavanski would like to see more of.

Eating locally grown foods has many benefits for the consumer, grower and the community.

Small holder farmers face a variety of agricultural and domestic issues that will affect their production, as well as an array of financial barriers often unthought of in developed nations.

Due to low levels of economic activity and poor infrastructure in rural areas, financial providers are often unwilling to establish business relationships with farmers, essentially capping their earning potential.

A total of approximately 2 billion of these small farm producers are unbanked, preventing them from fully integrating into the modern financial markets of today.

Through the AgriUT Foundation, farmers in this position will finally have access to the financial services that will help their businesses grow, benefitting their families, communities and the market as a whole.

Shorter food chains often reflect shorter physical distances and fewer intermediaries in the producer-consumer relationship.
This supply model has notable advantages for the economies of small farmers as well as for the environment, producers and development of rural areas.

During the time of Covid 19, hygiene regulations and checkpoints are now an additional piece of the puzzle that smallholder farmers need to navigate to access the supply chain.

Are smallholder farmers the solution to food security❓

When farmers adopt and plant improved varieties of crops, they increase the income of their own farm and improve the nutrition of the entire community in which they live. Several countries are already developing new policies and incentives that encourage exactly this type of crop diversification.

Thanks to AgriUT, these farmers have been able to integrate with financial markets and are now growing their income; each time harvests are refined and improved the farmers are able to improve the quality of their produce while increasing the quantity of their yield.
