In order to be fully productive, small farmers, fisher folk, livestock keepers and forest users in developing countries are in need of services that are often lacking in rural areas. Cooperatives and producer organizations provide an array of services ranging from:

1) Enhancing access to and management of natural resources;

2) Accessing input and output markets;

3) Improving access to information and knowledge;

4) Facilitating small producers’ participation in policy-making processes.
