Summary

This consultation seeks feedback on the proposed Fairtrade Standard for Advancing Farmer Income, a voluntary add-on standard designed to advance farmer's livelihoods within Fairtrade-certified Small-scale Producer Organisation supply chains. The draft standard introduces additional requirements for participating businesses and producer organisations, including responsible purchasing commitments, income-related payments, programme investments, and activities that strengthen resilience and reduce income-related risks.

Stakeholder feedback will help ensure that the standard is practical, credible, auditable, and fit for purpose. Your input will play an important role in shaping the final standard before it is submitted to the Fairtrade Standards Committee for approval.
