As the world struggles to address the worst food crisis in generations, agri-SMEs that play key roles across agricultural value chains are facing unprecedented pressure. Increased operation costs, lower profit margins, and higher interest rates are among the realities faced by many agri-SMEs following the compounding effects of the war in Ukraine, the COVID-19 pandemic, and climate change.
More than ever is the time for the agri-SME finance community to work in concert towards an inclusive ecosystem where agri-SMEs can affordably access the appropriate capital they need to weather these turbulent times.
The Annual Plenary Meeting of the Smallholder and Agri-SME Finance and Investment Network (SAFIN) is a unique opportunity to engage with experts from the rural and agricultural finance community, discover new research, pitch new initiatives, and connect with your next impact partner.
Under the theme “Opportunity in an evolving landscape,” this year’s event will focus on practical ways to turn the current food crisis into an opportunity for agri-SME finance and investment. The in-person event will take place in Morelia, Mexico alongside the 7th World Congress on Rural and Agricultural Finance and will be live-streamed to a virtual audience.
