Cooperativas Agrícolas

Cooperativas Agrícolas are collective organizations where farmers unite to pool resources, share tools, and collaborate on production and marketing of their crops or livestock. By working together, members benefit from economies of scale, better access to markets, and shared expertise, which can increase profitability and sustainability. These cooperatives operate democratically, with members having a say in decision-making, and aim to strengthen the economic position of individual farmers while promoting sustainable agricultural practices. They are common globally and help small to medium-sized farmers compete more effectively and improve their livelihoods.
