Beyond the numbers

Community ownership
in action.

The report records farmers organising and paying for summer water tankers to protect their orchards.

Orchard recovery after fire and storms, local participation in FPOs and farmer-managed sales stalls show the practical value of community institutions.

Some results are still developing. Plantation completion, share-capital enhancement and women’s enterprise credit remain priorities for follow-up.
