A majority of public policy assessments focus on either policy formulation or ex-post implementation evaluation, leaving the policymaking black box untouched. Stakeholder engagement on the nitty-gritty specifics of guidelines is also essential for improved policy execution. The current situations affect policy-making consultations and may result in low stakeholder buy-in. The operational principles for supporting 10,000 Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs) by further 2 years are highlighted in this article, which is an innovation of a recent significant policy document in Indian agriculture. Through a detailed e-survey, key stakeholders, representatives from FPOs and their federations, sponsoring and training organisations, donors, and other ecosystem players with significant experience working with FPOs were invited to participate and express their views on the policy document. The report includes e-survey findings that reveal a high level of participation and enthusiasm for the new policy. In the new programme, there is a clear endorsement of the long-term goal, as well as milestone-based assistance and improved financial arrangements.
