AgriConnect, supporting farmers to move up the value chain

AgriConnect is a World Bank Group initiative to help smallholders move from subsistence to surplus. It focuses on building the right ecosystem—strong cooperatives, better market links, and improved access to finance and digital tools for farmers and SMEs across the food sector. It is backed by a pledge to double WBG financing to $9 billion a year and mobilize another $5 billion. Launched in October 2025, in collaboration with IFAD and partners, this session aims to present Agriconnect to Rome-based UN agencies, Members and partners.
