to both input and output markets and limits options, since large-scale processors and marketers are not interested. With limited ability to achieve economies of scale, farmers have little incentive to raise production or increase quality. Most farmers also lack improved farming methods to do so. Other barriers are limited access to services and finance, weak infrastructure, unfavorable policies fostering import and lack of entrepreneurship.In Georgia there are small Industry specific associations, whose aim is to identify specific problems and to inform relevant government agencies and play a role in agricultural policy change / improve, but the issue of lobbying with such a mechanism is often useless, because having specific emphasis and not reflecting it in common context as part of a systemic change is unproductive. This problem led to creation of Georgian Farmers Association which would fill the space and gap between the state and its beneficiaries, also to play a role as “umbrella” organization, which aims to unite communities.
