Can you give me an example of what happens to the premiums the producers
receive?
The Maranura Primary Society in Peru keeps 10% of organic and gourmet premiums
for educational material, and salaries of three technicians who give assistance and
training to 33 committees. The co-op also bought a new coffee dryer and computer
and distributed the balance of the premiums to its members. The rest is distributed
among the organic farmers who use it to pay for various items, such as
improvements to their home and farm, school uniforms and generally improve their
standards of living.
