Farmers in Sri Lanka and their agricultural diversification process

Open access

Samenvatting

Sri Lanka is an island in the Indian Ocean largely involved in agriculture. The main crop grown on the island is paddy, the island is self-sufficient in producing this crop. Agricultural diversification would be a good option to reduce the dependence on the paddy production. Many different supporting parties are needed in the diversification process. Support for diversification is merely taking place at the higher levels and is lacking implementation at farm level. The stakeholders involved in the agricultural industry are: government (DOA), non-governmental organizations (NGO’s), buyers and cooperatives. In order to identify what type of support the farmers need from the stakeholders, further research took place. This resulted in the main research question: “What type of support do the farmers in Sri Lanka need in order to increase diversification on their farms?” The goal of this research is identifying what it is that the farmers need, in order to increase the diversification on their farms.
