The Lahaul potato society: the growth of a commercial farmers' organisation in the Himalayan valleys

Working papers

This study of Lahaul Seed Potato Growers Cooperative Marketing Ltd was undertaken to complement and build on two existing research/development projects in which ODI is involved. The first is the process of monitoring in support of institutional change in agricultural research and extension in Rajasthan. The second is a broader research project financed by the UK’s Department for International Development which has been critically examining the technology-related activities of formal farmers’ organisations in various countries throughout the world.
