Our recent mission in Ghana showcased the power of collaboration across policy, farming, and environmental stewardship. Key highlights:
1️⃣ Trade & Policy Progress at the AfCFTA: We contributed to vital discussions on reducing trade barriers, aligning with Codex MRLs, and promoting Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) — all to support safe, competitive African agri-trade.
2️⃣ Supporting Cashew Farmers in Wenchi: We launched a new project to build the capacity of cashew farmers in sustainable practices, with a focus on pollinator protection and biodiversity.
3️⃣ Closing the Loop on Waste: We visited our container management site where empty pesticide containers are safely collected and recycled, proving that responsibility doesn’t end at application.
“This mission was a powerful reminder that food safety, trade, biodiversity, and waste management are deeply interconnected — and all essential for a sustainable agricultural future.”
