Business knowledge of the development, implementation of policies for FPO management, foresightedness, and making critical decisions on major issues of the company/organization is crucial for Board Directors in the FPO. The Board of Directors should act as a representative of both management and shareholder (Members) interests. Hence capacity building programme for the Board of Directors is a key to the success of FPOs.
FPOs are formed exclusively by primary producers dealing with agricultural commodities and essentially focus on productivity and quality. However, the existing FPO members and BoDs have a little knowledge about the market linkages. FPOs can create a large marketable surplus based on the market demand. Therefore, there is a need to increase the market orientation and market participation among the farmer- members. A few professional institutions are engaged in the capacity building of farmers in various aspects of FPOs. However, their focus is on management capabilities only. The supply chain operations, market dynamics and linkages, business planning, market intelligence and market development are missing in most of these training programmes. Hence, the programme is for enhance the capacities of the stakeholders like BoDs and active members of the FPOs by incorporating all the above mentioned aspects.
