Farmers in remote areas struggle to access quality input and advisory services. Petrochem
Bangladesh Limited (PCL), with support from the Feed the Future Bangladesh Aquaculture and Nutrition Activity, extended advisory and aqua input services to small-scale aquaculture farmers through 60 women micro-franchisees (WMF) who are linked with the master franchisees (company dealers). The Activity extended the contract of Petrochem BD to establish an additional 40 One-Stop Service Centers (OSSC). Through this business model, PCL had a plan to reach 16,800 farmers (12,300 directly from technical events, and 4,500 from sales and advisory services) with particular attention to women and youth in the aquaculture sector.
