Farmer Producer Organizations
Formation and strengthening of Farmer Producer Organizations
under 10000 FPO scheme
In partnership with the Small Farmers’ Agribusiness Consortium (SFAC), Patanjali Organic Research Institute (PORI) is actively engaged as a Cluster-Based Business Organization (CBBO) in the Lalitpur and Jalaun districts of Uttar Pradesh. This collaboration has led to the formation and registration of multiple Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs) across these regions, empowering local farmers by enhancing their access to essential agricultural inputs and market opportunities.
