Global Forum on Food Security and Nutrition (FSN Forum)

In my opinion, global value chain is depend on the economic globalization, which is closely contacted with the development of  market economy. So I think the most important for a smallholder to benefit from global value chains is the development of market economy and the opportunity for a smallholder to take part in the market economy. If a developed market economy is existed and smallholders have the opportunity to take part in the market economy, smallholders will have chance to buy seed, chemical fertilizer, pesticides and other materials and sell his agricultural products in the market. These smallholders alse have the opportunity to share the achievements of the development of science and technology. Then they will have the chance to benefit from global value chains.
