dc.description.abstract | A key emerging strand in the development of smallholder
agriculture in South Africa is the effort to integrate smallholders
into corporate food retail value chains. In this, the
private sector and government have a common agenda,
which is to build a commercial smallholder class that
does not require ongoing financial support for survival,
but which is able to stand on its own feet and compete
in the market. Both government and the private sector
recognise the need for some kind of ‘start-up’ support,
and Walmart-Massmart’s recently announced supplier
fund will put pressure on other food retailers to deepen
their own activities in this regard. | en_US |
