Abstract

In a country dominated by smallholder farmers, aggregation of them is a crucial strategy for enhancing the competitiveness and improving resilience of the agricultural sector. The aggregation enables them to pool their resources, expertise, and produce, collectively addressing challenges they face individually and gaining a stronger position in the market. While aggregation holds immense potential for the empowerment of small farmers and the transformation of agribusiness, it also faces several challenges and constraints. This review article is an attempt to address this for successful implementation and widespread adoption. The article also raises research questions for policy makers.
