The Platform10 model recognizes that the specialty crop industry is made up of a number of different stakeholders. These include growers, industry groups, agribusinesses, researchers, startups, investors, dealers, policy makers, regulators and retailers. To name but a few.

All impact on what happens ‘on-farm’. Building a collaborative framework between these stakeholder groups is essential to ensure that the specialty crop industry can deliver.
