An emerging vision of agriculture for development redefines the roles of producers, the private sector and the state. Production is mainly by smallholders, who often remain the most efficient producers, in particular when supported by their organizations. The private sector drives the organization of value chains that bring the market to smallholders? The state? corrects market failures, regulates competition? and supports the greater inclusion of smallholders and rural workers. In this emerging vision, agriculture assumes a prominent role in the development agenda.} }
