This video turns the spotlight on the Boer2B (Farmer2Business) project’s online platform, ‘Lokalist’. This online marketplace allows Dutch farmers to sell their products directly to businesses and consumers in a more efficient and sustainable way, without worrying about delivery, sales or IT. Created with the help of funding from the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD), Lokalist means farmers can become more independent, cut costs, save time and charge more competitive prices. The Boer2B project was a finalist in the 2024 edition of the Agricultural and Rural Inspiration Awards (ARIA), a landmark event of the EU CAP Network.
