Ok, so a coop or factory in a "3rd world" country needs to pay around $5k to a European organization to get this certification for this Fairtrade thing.  It seems to me this just continues the racist attitude North America and Europe have toward certain countries.  I'm sure not every factory or coop in the "3rd world" takes advantage of its workers.  Maybe the "3rd world" should come up with some type of similar program for U.S. farmers to prove they didn't exploit migrant farm workers.
I won't even go into all the stupid problems that occur when you create an artificial floor price for a product.
