A senior source at the group stated that the agreement will provide Malian farmers with access to customized fertilizers tailored to their land’s needs, which will contribute to improving agricultural productivity and strengthening food security in the country.

- Offering specialized technical support
This collaboration is part of a series of similar initiatives implemented by OCP Group across various African countries, where the company seeks to contribute to achieving food security and developing the agricultural sector on the continent.

The first phase of the agreement’s implementation is expected to include comprehensive studies to assess farmers’ needs and analyze soil characteristics in various agricultural regions in Mali, in preparation for developing customized solutions that meet the specific needs of each region.
It’s worth noting that OCP Africa has extensive experience in implementing similar projects in many African countries, relying on advanced technologies and specialized expertise in improving soil fertility and increasing agricultural productivity.
