GLOBALGAP has implemented thefollowing three approaches to facilitatemarket access for small-scale farmers:

1. Group certification2. Smallholder manual3. Feedback opportunities

Approaches

Successful Story

1. The issue2. The initiative3. The process4. The impact5. The results


Successful Story

THE ISSUEThe increased consumer awareness in food safetyissues and their impact on our health and theenvironment has increased worldwide qualitystandards. Yet many food products come from smallfarming communities in developing countries.

Smallholder farmers in countries such as Thailandface difficulties in fulfilling the necessary requirementsthat would allow them access to higher-valuemarkets, such as in Europe or Japan. At less thanone hectare, most farms in Thailand are very small,which is why it is financially and structurally difficult forthem to implement standards and gain certification.


Successful Story

THE INITIATIVEThe Thai Chamber of Commerce and the publicenterprise GTZ are working to develop theGLOBALGAP GTZ Option 2 Project. It is now becomingpossible for these small farms to also achievecertification as member of a farmer group. This enablesthem to reduce certification costs and develop qualitymanagement systems, which are practical to manage,but still comply with the standards.The main objectives of the project are to open upmarket access for the smallholders, develop a simplesmallholder manual for groups and improveconsultation and training.


Successful Story

THE PROCESSFour Option 2 farmer groups including 70 farmers witha total area of 160 hectares have already beenformed. The groups are trained in quality managementand audit inspections, harvesting and producehandling, pesticide and fertiliser requirements, storagefacilities, standard requirements and environmentalissues.

The aim is for all of the four groups and 70 farmers tobe certified at the end of the project. The associationsinvolved hope to continue the project in the future tomake it possible for as many Thai farmers as possibleto take part.


Successful Story

THE IMPACTThe GLOBALGAP certification option for small-holderfarmers is improving their ability to comply withinternational requirements. Furthermore, it is openingup new markets and allowing them to participate inexciting export opportunities and increase theirprofits.

Agricultural products such as coconuts, mangos,lychees and dragon fruits can now be exportednationally and worldwide by the certified groupfarmers in Thailand. This conforms with the qualitycriteria for Good Agricultural Practices (G.A.P.).


Successful Story

THE RESULTS

•The grouping of farmers overcomes structuralbarriers•Local public sector support facilitates smallholdermarket access•A global standard is the driver for implementationof G.A.P.


GLOBALGAP will have a stallholder workshop tocollect views and concerns in Kuala Lumpur
