Sustainable and Secure Smallholder Systems @scale
This Public Private Partnership (PPP) aims to create opportunities for self-reliance and economic growth for smallholder coffee farmers in parts of Kenya and Uganda. Due to limited knowledge, limited land availability, climate change and lack of technology, the coffee production of smallholder coffee farmers is low and inefficient. Besides providing training and input materials to farmers, the project promotes and facilitates the use of Biodigesters to provide the farms with energy and better manure for the land. Hivos will be responsible for the overall project management in this PPP. Other partners include ECOM, SMS, Kawacom (all subsidiaries of Ecom) and Biogas Solutions Uganda Limited. These partners will be involved in the training, certification and other technical assistance. Ecom will also provide a credit facility for farmers to enable them to buy farming input materials and for buying biodigester. A joint learning platform will be established with Solidaridad, who has written a similar project proposal (FDOV12KE04).
Both organisations have worked together on the project proposals to prevent overlap and will work together in the future to share accumulated knowledge and best practices.
