For greater reductions in rural poverty, it is necessary to address the obstacles faced during the implementation of the initiatives. There are, however, several examples of successful and effective initiatives that farmers' organizations have undertaken in reducing rural poverty. These initiatives repeatedly stated that a close working relationship with the rural community was a factor in the success of the initiative. This illustrates the key role farmers' organizations play in eradicating rural poverty. These organizations have an important role because they have the established networks and links to the rural community.
Participatory initiatives are successful because they have a direct impact on people's lives.
Attention to the local economy and its impact on the local population deserves equal attention. Farmers must no longer be regarded as simply executors of instructions. Rather, they should participate as active decision-makers. The abilities and knowledge which farmers' organizations are able to contribute to eradicating poverty should be enhanced. Farmers' organizations are well situated to pursue anti-poverty strategies due to their close relationship with the rural community.
