(2/2) A simple example: Asiatic pennwort can increase in value from US$ 0.25/kg fresh to nearly US$5/kg when processed locally. That's the impact of investing in rural enterprises and local value chains. More here 🪴🍃➡️shorturl.at/9w1Lk @IFAD @UNinLaoPDR

How can producer organizations be effectively linked to private companies to deliver measurable returns at scale? IFAD impact assessments indicate that projects with strong private sector engagement in value chains raised producer incomes by 64% – four times higher than projects without such engagement. Unlike traditional public-private partnerships, IFAD’s Public-Private-Producer Partnerships (4Ps) model positions small-scale producers as active commercial partners. It aligns public, private and producer incentives within a single investment structure designed to crowd in private capital, reduce risk and convert higher production into higher margins. Since 2023, IFAD and the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries of Japan are financing the Enhanced Linkages between the Private sector and Small-scale producers (ELPS) initiative, which connects corporations and small-scale farmers through joint public-private investments. Working with coffee manufacturer @UCC_COFFEE and trading giant @Marubeni_Corp, ELPS is strengthening producer organizations in #Tanzania and scaling sustainable coffee practices. The goal is to drive doubled productivity by the end of 2027 while strengthening overall supply consistency. For public and private partners alike, the 4P model offers a structured, evidence-based pathway to connect rural producers to markets, mobilize private capital and deliver growth at scale.

This week, IFAD and the Government of #India launched a new eight-year Country Strategic Opportunities Programme (COSOP) for 2026–2033 – a strategy designed to expand incomes, resilience and opportunity for India's rural economies. Aligned with India’s Viksit Bharat@2047 vision, the new strategy focuses on two priorities: 🔹strengthening the social, economic and climate resilience of rural people 🔹scaling proven rural development models in India and sharing them across the Global South The India-IFAD partnership is built on results: In #Maharashtra, nearly 1 million women have built financial track records through self-help group federations, unlocking essential bank lending and achieving repayment rates close to 99%. In #Meghalaya, investments in cold storage, farm equipment and logistics are helping producers reach markets as far as Dubai. In #Uttarakhand, women-led producer enterprises are turning locally sourced natural products into nationally branded goods sold on e-commerce platforms. “India-IFAD partnership is distinguished by not only its longevity, but its strategic alignment. IFAD’s programmes in India have remained closely integrated with national priorities – supporting agricultural transformation, livelihood diversification, women’s empowerment, and institutional strengthening,” said Anuradha Thakur, Secretary, Department of Economic Affairs (@FinMinIndia), Ministry of Finance (@DFS_India), Government of India (@Indiagovin). “Over time, the focus has evolved from basic poverty alleviation to building sustainable, market-oriented rural livelihoods that are resilient to climate and economic shocks.” Continue reading at bit.ly/4uOCibN
