Exciting News from AMEA (Agribusiness Market Ecosystem Alliance): The launch of ISO 18716 to Guide Professional Farmer Organizations! 🌍 Last week, AMEA launched a campaign in #Delft promoting ISO 18716 – a pivotal step toward uniting efforts to support professional farmer organizations worldwide. This standard offers a much-needed common framework that enables structured growth, ensuring that farmer organizations are equipped to meet international standards and access critical markets and financing opportunities. Reflecting on this initiative, Lucas Simons, Founder of SCOPEinsight, shared, “Without a shared standard that defines our goal, scaling becomes impossible, collaboration falls short, and we are left with fragmented efforts that miss the mark. That is why we initiated the ISO process, which now defines what a professional farmer organization is. It’s thrilling to see this come to maturity under AMEA (Agribusiness Market Ecosystem Alliance) and NEN’s leadership.” At SCOPEinsight, our tools are designed to measure against this standard, enabling farmer organizations to become “ISO 18716 compliant.” This not only demonstrates their professionalism but also opens doors to new markets and #partnerships. We’re committed to supporting our clients with insights that benchmark against ISO standards, providing actionable paths to continuous improvement.

++++ ISO TC 347 ++++ Get ready, because tomorrow it's IWA time again! 🎉 🎉🎉 The ISO Data-Driven Agrifood Systems is gearing up for its second international workshop, focused on developing a reference implementation for data-driven agrifood systems. Ahead of this pivotal event, the German delegation’s chairman, Christian Hennig, and vice-chairman, Benjamin Weinert, met at Hafven Hannover to get prepared. We worked through the many documents provided by our international chairman, R. Andres Ferreyra (huge thanks to Andres for the stellar prep!) as follow-up of the 1st workshop, we delved into the use cases gathered during this last workshop. These use cases reflect the workflows that farmers around the globe are eager to digitize, aiming to simplify their operations and, in some cases, make them possible at all. Tomorrow, we’ll be exploring diverse perspectives from stakeholders worldwide, striving to integrate these insights into a unified reference implementation in the upcoming workshops. We’re excited to exchange ideas with our global colleagues, share the German perspective, and collaborate on solutions to the complex challenges within ISO TC 347. Stay tuned!

Are you working with #farmer based organisations to create #sustainable growth in the #agrifood sector? Then, the latest #ISO18716 standard might be just the resource you need to elevate your #impact!
18716, 18716, 18716, 18716……❓❓❓❓ This week the new ISO 18716 standard for Farmer Based Organisations was launched at the AMEA (Agribusiness Market Ecosystem Alliance) annual convening. Why does this matter? 👨🌾 👩🌾 It will help Farmer Organizations worldwide to understand how to develop their business capacities that unlock growth. Currently, support to Farmer Organizations is often fragmented, inefficient and often ineffective. The 18716 ISO standard provides a common language by which FOs and their supporters can measure progress together. iCRA community and local partners, check it out! I think it will provide a great opportunity to profile the range and quality of your services!
