THE IMPORTANCE OF PARTNERSHIP IN THE SHINYANGA REGION
Cooperatives are the only remaining and reliable weapon to uplift the low-income farmer, through Cooperatives Farmers have one voice in deciding things like setting the price of their produce when they want to sell, finding a reliable market, including producing productively. In addition, through Cooperatives farmers largely gain great benefits because they are the ones setting the price, a good example is through the warehouse receipt system.
Through a cooperative model for the Shinyanga region, farmers will benefit greatly because despite having a cotton crop for some time now, the Government has officially legalized the sale of Lentil and Choroko crops through auctions, thus increasing the income of small farmers.
