Abstract

Globalization can be viewed as the integration of inputs and outputs into global markets, sharing of information and knowledge, and promulgation of rules governing such integration. World Trade Organization, International Monetary Fund, and World Bank play a vital role in the process of economic globalization. The positive and negative affects of globalization and the groups that resist and support globalization are many. Some of the impacts of globalization can be seen on small farmers in developed and developing countries. Corporate globalization has impacted the rural communities in several ways. This paper presents impacts globalization on small farmers and mentions implications of these impacts on information transfer to small farmers.
