Abstract: Policies that effectively and efficiently address the needs and interests of small producers are critical in improving their position in agricultural value chains. To this end, the Global and Regional Advocacy on Small Producers (GRASP) coalition commissioned studies in Cameroon, Ghana, Malawi, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia to ascertain the level and type of public agricultural investment and whether agricultural policies are beneficial to small producers. This paper is a synthesis of the individual country reports.
