| dc.description | For smallholder agriculture to prosper and transform itself, access to rural services is essential. Rural services that enable smallholders to overcome constraints to increase their productivity, manage their farms as a sustainable business, link to inputs and outputs markets and act collectively to improve their livelihoods are a first line of action to reduce rural poverty. Undoubtedly, improving rural services has long been on the development agenda. Yet, ensuring equitable access to rural se rvices remains a challenge that governments and their development partners need to address to improve rural livelihoods and overcome rural poverty. The pluralistic Market-Oriented Services (MOS) programme aims to address the critical role of rural services in enhancing agriculture-based livelihoods and reducing rural poverty . Emphasis is placed on advisory, financial and support services needed for smallholders to improve productivity, gain access to markets and increase their income to move o ut of poverty. This note outlines the conceptual framework for the pluralistic market-oriented services (MOS) programme, and briefly describes its objective, main dimensions and fields of action. | |
