FarmertoFarmer Program

The John Ogonowski and Doug Bereuter Farmer-to-Farmer Program is a non-profit organization based in the United States. With six employees, the organization generates approximately $50 million in annual revenue. The Farmer-to-Farmer Program provides technical assistance to farmers, farm groups, agribusinesses, and agricultural institutions in developing and transitional countries. Their services focus on promoting sustainable improvements in food security, agricultural processing, production, and marketing. The program aims to achieve this through volunteer expertise in areas such as increasing agricultural productivity and profitability, improving conservation practices, expanding access to financial services, and strengthening agricultural institutions. The program distinguishes itself through its reliance on volunteers from diverse backgrounds within the U.S. agricultural sector. These volunteers, including farmers, academics, business professionals, and retirees, bring their practical experience and knowledge to address the specific needs of host-country partners.
