EDITOR'S PICK 

This Guide provides a quick and easy-to-use tool to understand how digital financial services (DFS) can help address some of the challenges that smallholder farmers are experiencing today, such as lack of access to financial services and convenient payment systems.

The goal of this Guide is to identify specific challenges in value chains that can be addressed by improved payments or financial services, and then to identify corresponding DFS solutions to these specific challenges, with the aim of improving the ability of value chains to increase farmer incomes.

GATEWAY HIGHLIGHT
Interview with Anita Campion, President and CEO of Connexus
