    Coffee, in dollar terms is the most traded agricultural product in the world. Coffee throughout the world including the Asia/Pacific region supports millions of small farmers and their families. With world coffee prices are at their lowest levels for many years the very existence of many small farmers is at stake. Such prices represent a real threat to the industry. There is an opportunity to improve farm incomes through sustainable production of high value, high quality Specialty coffee and Org anic coffee.

    One of the main causes of food insecurity for farmers in rural areas is limited access to agricultural inputs. Therefore, one strategy to address the vulnerability of food-insecure farmers is to improve smallholder access to these inputs. To this end, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) sets up input trade fairs and voucher schemes to provide poor, vulnerable and foodinsecure farmers with access to the inputs (e.g. seeds, fertilizers and hand tools) they nee d to sustain their agricultural livelihoods.
