Article evaluation

I decided to pick the article called Fair trade certification. Everything is relevant to the topic, and is easy to follow. Nothing is distracting. They included how Fair Trade money doesn't fully reach the farmers in need which is something that I thought would be missing. It does a really good job of discussing the full topic. The only thing I feel like could be added on to would be the process in which someone can become Fair trade certified. I think that saying Fair Trade helps the rich more than the poor is a stretch to me. It is over exagerated with not enough to back up that kind of claim. The links that I tried do work, and everything seems to be on topic and sited properly. There was no talk in the talk page.

Inefficient marketing system
There have been complaints that Fairtrade certified products should not be sold through a monopsonist cooperative because it may be inefficient and corruption easily takes place. Fairtrade farmers should have the right to choose the buyer who offers the best price, or switch when their cooperatives are going bankrupt " Having a monopsonist cooperative be in charge of Fairtrade certification leads to that cooperative trying to grow the fair trade industry for profit and not so much for the lives of all the small farmers. At this point they are trying to increase the supply of fair trade when the supply is already far beyond the demand.
