Group activities    
        
Working together to solve problems is an age old solution. For example, there may be advantages in running an enterprise as a group. People can share their skills, time and resources by working together and women especially may gain confidence by being part of a group. Decisions to undertake marketing or input buying as a group have long been recognised as helpful to small farmers. The redevelopment of agricultural cooperatives may be of great benefit to rural producers. Group activities are not easy, however, and it is important that people weigh the pros and cons carefully and take informed decisions about the best strategy to adopt.
