Fixing the Supply Chain Sustainably
Shane Heywood provides an article that reveals how beer manufacturers are collaborating with smallholder farms to get a more secure supply chain, lower the cost of raw materials, and empower more households with income, and all in addition to improving yields from farming that could change lives for the 2 Bn+ smallholder farmers in the world.
While interacting with 20+ smallholder farmers in Kenya, I, in addition to charities like One Acre Fund, had the chance to see first hand how improved yields from farming could change lives for the 2 Bn+ smallholder farmers in the world.
Yet, it’s not only NGOs / charities that recognize the value of farmers; beer manufacturers also work to collaborate with smallholder farmers. By incorporating the outputs from farmers as raw material, firms can get a more secure supply chain, lower the cost of raw materials, while empowering households with income.
