Book Synopsis Leveraging institutional food procurement for linking small farmers to markets by : Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
Book excerpt: In developing countries, institutional food procurement programmes (IFPPs) are increasingly viewed as a means to integrate small farmers into formal food systems. Drawing lessons from the World Food Programme's Purchase for Progress Programme, Brazil's Food Purchase Programme and others, this book reviews initiatives that link demand for food from institutions (e.g. schools and hospitals) to broader development objectives.
