About the Project
The Farmers Focused Transformation-II (FFT-II) project is a five-year initiative running from January 1, 2026, to December 31, 2030.
The project focuses on the avocado, banana, and mango value chains in the Sidama and South regions of Ethiopia.
FFT-II aims to strengthen 26 farmer organizations (FOs) and improve the livelihoods of more than 51,000 smallholder farmers by promoting resilient, inclusive, and market-oriented horticulture systems.
FFT-II will strengthen the role of cooperatives in improving productivity, market access, and business performance. The project will enhance cooperative-led production systems and extension services to ensure farmers receive timely technical support, adopt improved farming practices, and access quality inputs.
These efforts are expected to increase productivity and improve household incomes.
The project will also strengthen market systems by improving aggregation, market linkages, and value addition for avocado, banana, and mango products. Cooperatives will be supported to improve collection systems, connect with reliable buyers, and explore value-added opportunities that increase competitiveness in domestic and export markets.
In addition, FFT-II will expand cooperative financial services and improve business performance to build more sustainable and resilient farmer organizations.
To ensure long-term sustainability, FFT-II will invest in strengthening the governance, leadership, and institutional capacity of farmer organizations. The project will improve management systems, transparency, accountability, and member participation while promoting climate-smart horticulture practices and improved post-harvest management to reduce losses and improve product quality.
FFT-II will also support lobbying, advocacy, and policy engagement to create a more enabling environment for horticulture cooperatives and smallholder farmers.
By 2030, the project envisions strong, financially sustainable, and well-governed farmer organizations that drive productivity, value addition, and market integration across the value chain.
