Abstract

The Mozambique Agricultural Aggregator Pilot (MAAP) research program investigated how jobs and earnings changed when seven different commercial aggregators worked with contracted growers in farm-based value chains in Mozambique in the period 2017-2020. The study covered a range of crops and animal products including: cotton, sugar, maize, chickens, sesame and goats. MAAP aims to improve our understanding of the viability of agricultural aggregation schemes involving agribusinesses working with smallholder farm suppliers in Mozambique and similar African countries. It investigates the incremental costs and returns to firms and growers of expanding the number of growers in existing aggregation schemes.
