ACFA: Cooperative Farmers, Setting Real Goals

Set Goals

        

         Before you start screening the local paper on why you want to go for livestock business, take a step back. What are your goals for your small farm? What kind of farm are you planning? Is it going to serve as a hobby farm for you? When you have chosen to make your farm a supplement farm or a full-time job, this will make you realize how much relaxation will be employed. 

          Do you want to do it for fun in the evenings and on the weekends? It could be that you want your farm to actually make money, eventually replacing your current job. Or your goal might be to produce all the food (and possibly power) that you and your family need - homesteading or self-sufficiency. You therefore need to apply more dedication and determination and working towards making your vision come to reality.

We in ACFA recommend that governments at all levels should support the effort of the farmers’ co-operative movement as a collective body under All Co-operative Farmers Association (ACFA) to enhance food sufficiency which will lead to self sustenance.

The Idea behind ACFA FARM is that solutions to Africa’s problems should come from Africans. 

With a target of two years in mind, ACFA, hope to become a real pillar of attraction.

ONLY ACFA has this plan.

ACFA promise to deliver, if they are considered for this privilege.

ACFA: Question About Cooperative. No 1

Question 1: What Is The Concept At Which The Co-Operative Foundation Is Laid?

Answer: “The co-operative ideal is as old as human society. It is the idea of conflict and competition as a principle of economic progress that is new. The development of the ideal of co-operation in the nineteenth century can best be understood as an attempt to make explicit a principle which is inherent in the constitution of society but which had been forgotten in the turmoil and disintegration of rapid economic change.”

Question 2: Was There Anytime That The Process Of Cooperative Faced A Hitch?

Answer: From the 1760s onwards, there were experiments in co-operation across the UK such as the Fenwick Weavers shop in Scotland and the Hull corn mill. By the early 1830s there were around 300 co-operative societies in the UK. These co-operatives often ran into problems through giving credit or a lack of business experience. Sometimes they were unable to recruit new members to move the co-operative into a new generation.
