According to estimates by the United Nations Development Programme, as of 2017, 821 million people in the world were undernourished; nearly 151 million children under the age of 5 were stunted, and the proportion was as high as 22%. The World Food Program (WFP) of the United Nations has even more statistics: 39 countries in Africa provide school meal offering programs, and 30 million African children eat at school every day.  However, there are still 61 million children across the continent who are going to school with hunger.

The system is fragile in rural farms. Growing, harvesting, processing, packaging, transporting, distributing, trading,  and storing food are all challenges. Process management is more difficult and extremely complex work and every small improvement will affect many lives.The establishment of the rural cooperative Farmer Union is to connect many different smallholders and achieve self-sufficient food production through education and training,  and then ameliorate hunger issues; then offer a food diversity project to the market, with long-term investments and mechanisms in place. The biggest difference between NGOs and corporations is to improve profits while focusing on equity and efficiency;  teaching expertise to improve profits, regulate productivity and strengthen supply chains, and then reinvest their profits into public works. On the economic side, we will invest in crucial activities and build platforms. On a social side, training key audiences and linking with cooperatives improves the economy.

Main goals

Key performance indicator

Farmers

One month of training/three months of monitoring/annual increase in revenue of $100 (10~20% increase.)

communities

Increase overall income by 10,000 USD / Increase economic benefits by 30% / Help 30 farmers。

Property

Recruit  Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) shareholders; reduce carbon footprint, and perform industrial technical coaching or equipment upgrades to increase production benefits.
In response to climate change, we will establish operational procedures for local agriculture, improve links such as fertilization and soil turning, reduce carbon emissions and increase carbon sequestration. For agriculture, in addition to improving yields, define agricultural diversity and organic practices for the next 5 years. We will establish indicators such as plowing, composting, and environmental monitoring and use the bee survival rate and vegetation coverage rate to check environmental friendliness. Give back the harvests to CSA investors,  and become a model of sustainable social enterprises
