Acceso believes all smallholder farmers have a right to the same quality information that other producers have.

AgTech offers an efficient way to reach them.  Acceso also partners with other non-profit organizations, agribusinesses, and research institutes with large networks of smallholder farmers to enable them to use Extensio to supplement their existing services to farmers and to better communicate with them.
