Some questions:

  • What is our larger vision? Are we all aligned on this?

  • FPO selection:

    • Is there a profile of FPO we want to focus on? Some considerations:

      • # of shareholders, % of women shareholders, % of women BOD members, annual turnover, quality of resource institution, location (SRLM support, easy access for DG team for regular checkins)

    • Do we want to focus on specific value chains? Do we pilot with a variety of FPOs over the next six months to one year and then hone in?

  • “Entry points.” Which of the activities below do we want to pilot as we work with FPOs? Ideally we can come up with a rough FPO level budget (eg, we collaborate for 6 months, invest ___ resources and hope to achieve the following)

    • Recruit and train a data officer. What are their role and responsibilities?

    • Create member profiles

    • Digitize the input business

    • Share data with off-takers

    • Send targeted advisory messages to FPO members

    • Apply for grants and loans. What are the subsidized govt grant programs in AP, Odisha (eg, Mission Shakti), Jharkhand; what are eligibility requirements, can we create awareness and help apply?

  • How we work: Currently, there is a weekly checkin w Ravi, Sai, Amrita and Ashok. Should we loop in Gautam and Vineet? Others? Can we do a better job of establishing two week sprint goals and sharing those broadly so everyone has visibility?

  • When we met in Khopoli in late May, we discussed bringing a bunch of stakeholders together for a pledge akin to RE100 commitment at Climate Corp: which I thought was a cool idea. Do we want to revisit this?

    • “we pledge to empower farmer organizations to improve their livelihoods through data and digitization”

      • informed consent

      • secure data sharing

      • audit trail

      • interoperability

      • data ownership

      • data localization

      • transparency

  • No labels
