SNV in Colombia presents a new "Guíde on Best Practices to Implement Inclusive Businesses in the Palm Oil Sector" (in Spanish).
This publication is based on an evaluation conducted during 2009 by SNV-CECODES, Fedepalma and the USAID/ MIDAS Programme where 22 cases of productive partnerships were analysed in all regions producing palm oil. These partnerships involve more than 20 extractive companies, 90 producers' organisations and 3900 families of small producers of palm oil.
The evaluation revealed the strengths and weaknesses of these partnerships and also showed their performance in production aspects, environment, social impact, commercial activities, organisational capacities, as well as institutional, administrative and financial aspects.
The Guide also uses the experience and procedures used by the Project called "Support to Productive Partnerships" carried out by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural development of Colombia. This publication was financed by USAID.
