The Tata-Cornell Institute for Agriculture and Nutrition is a long-term research initiative that develops and assesses innovative, food systems-based approaches to reducing poverty and improving nutrition and livelihoods in the developing world, with a specific focus on India.
Led by Director Prabhu Pingali, TCI has a diverse, multidisciplinary team based at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, as well as in Mumbai and New Delhi, India. TCI staff, scholars, and faculty fellows represent a broad range of academic disciplines—from economics and development sociology to international nutrition and food science—all converging around the goal of improving nutrition outcomes in the developing world.
As demand for agricultural products rises, small farms have an opportunity to play a big role and reap many benefits, if they are able to join together to form farmer producer organizations to increase their aggregate size. TCI is undertaking a study to assess the challenges facing FPO models in India and Mexico.
