*EN Smallholders' markets*

*The new edition of the Nyéléni Newsletter is now online!*
Bulk of the food consumed in the world is produced by smallholders and
workers, and channeled through *“territorial markets”*, which reflect the
huge diversity of contexts that characterise small-scale food production
and distribution.
Territorial markets are an important source of employment and critical in
battling hunger and poverty.
These markets increasingly face threats from corporate led
super/hyper-markets, procurement, storage, certification and food safety
systems.
Corporations use neoliberal trade and investment agreements, and
sophisticated marketing systems to control how food is produced, priced,
distributed and consumed.
*Protecting and strengthening the markets of smallholders are crucial
aspects of food sovereignty and restoring societal control over the
economy.*
