Foreword
Food and farming is inseparable. Smallholder farmers are the key actor who produce food. Farmers should always supply the food
as needed by the market sustainably and therefore they also need appropriate knowledge and information to be able to compete
and fulfil the market demand. However many farmers have lack of proper services, such as access to knowledge and information
(e.g. through training) which are mainly provided by government. Donors and technical development cooperation agency may
provide direct training support as well, but still inadequate as number of farmers are too many.
Recently, several donors such as DFID-UK, DFAT-Australia are piloting an approach namely Making Market Works with the Poor
or M4P. In this approach, rather than providing direct support services to smallholder farmers, they work together with private sector
and other stakeholder to develop market system and provide sustainable solution to smallholders. With this approach, smallholders
get better access to input and output market and in the same time also bring returns to private sectors that involve.
As for example, DFAT (Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade) Australia has a program called PRISMA (Promoting Rural Income
through Support for Markets in Agriculture) work in more than 20 agriculture commodities and one of them is beef cattle in West
Nusa Tenggara Island, eastern Indonesia. In that island, beef cattle farmers face difficulties in increasing the weight of their cattle
due to the unavailability of quality fodder and lack of proper services to have good skills in livestock management. PRISMA works
together with newly established feed company are producing and supplying good quality feed and also developing a retail
distribution network which enable small farmers to get access more affordable and easily. Besides, the company agreed to work
with retailers to introduce this new feed to the farmers, inform and convince them of the benefit of the new practices by using
demonstration plots, as training to farmers. Everybody involved in this approach has an incentive and reach more farmers. Seeing
this example, other feed companies are expected to produce other quality feed and provide similar services to more farmers, who
later will benefit with increased income.
Market System
Development Approach
(M4P-Making Market
Works for the Poor)
Question: Are there any solutions for the target group? Why market
does not work for them?
Symptom, causes and underlying cause: Low productivity, lack of
certain knowledge, lack of service providers
Working in partnership with identified service providers
More outreach and sustainable, brings incentive to the collaborative
partner
Actors in market system remains the same
May create additional benefit to other market actors and impact to the
poor
