*EN Smallholders' markets* http://www.nyeleni.org/ccount/click.php?id=100
*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.*
