Achievements of ESAFF

The Forum through its member organizations has recorded a number of success stories:
  • In Kenya, Tanzania and Lesotho; national small-scale farmers’ fora are involved in campaigns to influence bio safety frameworks, land, trade, water and farmer friendly credit scheme policies affecting farmers. This is done in collaboration with other suitable like-minded players.
  • In Zambia and Uganda, farmers’ fora are lobbying for favourable land tenure policy and agriculture financing.
  • ESAFF Zimbabwe is working on seed security programmes.
