2022: State of Sector Report – Farmer Producer Organisations in India
₹395.00India print edition available on: Amazon India
“With the increased momentum in promoting FPOs recently, much has been written on the successes of the past and challenges of the present. But none that’s as comprehensive as this 2022: State of Sector Report – Farmer Producer Organizations in India. Through real-life case studies and in-depth analysis, several eminent authors have reflected on a wide range of issues relevant for the sector. The importance of competent promoting agencies for capacity building of FPOs and an enabling policy environment – as key components of the ecosystem required to realise the potential of collectives – is well brought out in the report. Underscoring the vital role of technology in strengthening and scaling the FPOs is another contribution of the report. Additionally, I am sure all the stakeholders will find the data and information presented in the report very valuable in carrying out their day-to-day work.”

Bhima Koregaon: Challenging Caste
₹795.00Indian print edition also available on: Amazon India
International print edition available on: Amazon USA | Amazon UK
eBook edition available on: Amazon Kindle
Challenging Caste reads the violence at Bhima Koregaon as a clash between two worldviews — one striving to flatten the social hierarchy, the other justifying and perpetuating it. This book rips apart the Maoist conspiracy theory and the Urban Naxal narrative. It points out the ironies underlying the State’s charges against the sixteen, and the flimsiness of the evidence that is said to have been planted on their hacked computers. The conspiracy against the sixteen that inflicted untold miseries on their families is retold here in their voices.

2024: State of the Sector Report – Farmer Producer Organisations in India
Indian print edition also available on: Amazon India
International print edition available on: Amazon USA | Amazon UK
eBook edition available on: Amazon Kindle
“I congratulate the National Association of FPOs on bringing out the State of the Sector Report 2024. As an organisation that works in tandem with village-level farmer-centric institutions in both dairy and horticulture sectors, Mother Dairy understands the potential that such institutions hold in transforming the agri sector. This report brings out some interesting aspects such as the enablers of FPOs and turns a new chapter by introducing some metrics to assess the performance of FPOs. Articles by thought leaders and practitioners who work with FPOs makes this report enriching, highlighting fascinating initiatives and experiences, which I hope will be of use and insight to the readers.”
