Facilitating collaboration between farmers

Authors: Laura Van Vooren, An Jamart, Michelle Hallemans

Problem: Cooperation between farmers with different specialisations can support crop diversification and close local nutrient cycles. However, farmers from different sectors usually do not come into contact, and experience with setting up and maintaining partnerships is lacking.

Solution: Cooperation was stimulated through setting up regional farmers’ meetings, organising workshops around common topics and facilitating existing partnerships.
