•Big Buyers consider profit and have great market choice
• Small farmer consider yield and quality and have limited market choice. They can either consume their own product or sell them.
•Farmer everywhere need certification of quality standard ( Sudan 1 scandal)
•Big buyers crush small farmers unintentionally
Big Buyer Linkage: Issues should consider
• Business Model of the Big Buyer
•Quality requirement and certification
•Purchase or procurement procedure
