The FAO Diversification booklet series focuses on a farm or non-farm enterprise that can be integrated easily into small-scale farms to increase incomes and enhance livelihoods. The enterprises profiled in the FAO Diversification booklet series are suitable for smallholder farmers in terms of resource requirements, additional costs, exposure to risk and complexity. Each booklet provides information that enables decision-makers, people and organizations that provide advisory, business and technical support services to small-scale farmers, to confidently make and take decisions on the most appropriate enterprise to promote in their local areas of interest.
The series is composed of 21 booklets.
