P4P in Burkina Faso
In Burkina Faso, P4P aims to increase the capacity of farmers’ organizations (FOs) to invest in crop production and engage in collective sales, helping them become independent, professional actors in the agricultural value chain. Working closely with the government’s Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security (MASA), P4P acts as a catalyst for collaboration among partners across the value chain, facilitating FO access to WFP and other markets. In 2015 and beyond, P4P in Burkina Faso will continue to increase WFP purchases from smallholder farmers, promote and empower women farmers and support the government’s creation of a national programme similar to P4P.
