本文总结了FSRP/DSA调查的结果，旨在确定围绕农民协会在提供和获得农业服务方面的作用的一些关键体制问题。具体而言，这些调查侧重于四个行为者--MINAGRI区域和地区代理、非政府组织、区政府(市长)以及农民协会和团体向农民提供农业服务的能力，这些服务可能有助于从半自给农业向商业农业的过渡。正如这份综合文件指出的那样，多年来，通过各种政府、非政府组织、捐助机构和私营企业的努力，其中一些服务一直是不定期提供的。此外，本文件还强调了这四个主要行为者的优势和劣势，并确定了需要改进的领域，并提出了通过农民协会提高向农民提供服务的效率和公平性的方法。
This paper summarizes the findings from FSRP/DSA surveys designed to identify some of the key institutional issues surrounding the role of farmer associations in the delivery of, and access to agricultural services. Specifically, the surveys focus on the capacity of four actors–MINAGRI Regional and District Agents, NGOs, District Governments (the Mayors) and farmer associations and intergroupements to provide farmers with agricultural services that might help in the transition from semi-subsistence to commercial agriculture. As this synthesis paper indicates, some of these services have been provided on an irregular basis for many years through a variety of government, NGO, donor agency and private business efforts. Moreover, this paper highlights the strengths and weaknesses of these four key actors; it also identifies areas for improvement, and recommends ways for enhancing the efficiency and equity of services available to farmers through farmer associations.
