I am grateful for the privilege of working with my insightful, knowledgeable supervisors, Professor Andr Louw and Professor Johann Kirsten. It was their advice and motivation throughout the process that enabled me to achieve my objective of completing this study . The preparation and writing up of this research proved to be extremely difficult and time consuming. However, the task was made considerably easier by the capable and energetic supervision of Professor Louw in particular, who advised me from the initial stage until the final stage of this study .
This study focused on analysing the production and marketing constraints that often prevent smallholder farmers from accessing high-value markets in the agribusiness value chain. Access to markets is an essential requirement for the poor in rural areas to enjoy the benefits of agricultural growth.
