Challenges of Achieving Quality and Volume - Farming practices (pruning, plant protection) – size and overall quality - Climate (only specific areas are suitable) – size and volume Page 10
Challenges of Marketing Page 11
Ways Forward - Organise farmers into larger co-operative (first steps towards an agro-industrial cluster for dried fruits?) - Have farmers/co-operative be owner of organic certificate(s) - Storage and processing … ? - Diversifying marketing outlets Page 12
Key Reflections - Time (and resources) needed to set up the linkages – how can it be done besides through project support? - Risk management for investors – how can risk be minimised? - How can the representation of Kyrgyz producers in international trade institutions be improved? Page 13
