Africa’s agriculture is at a turning point. A new BFAP study highlights urgent need for sustainable production, with effective weed control key to food security, livelihoods and environmental protection. Read more: africanfarming.com/2026/04/05/eff…

Agriculture is changing fast. In Africa & the Middle East, farmers face climate pressure, tight resources, and rising demand. Tools like drones & biopesticides can boost efficiency, but access, training, and partnerships will decide the future. croplifeafrica.org

Easter Monday is about small joys, but every chocolate egg has a bigger story. Around 70% of cocoa comes from Africa, yet crops face up to 40% losses from pests and disease. Supporting farmers protects livelihoods, supply, and food systems. #EasterMonday #Cocoa

This Good Friday, tables fill with shared meals, reflection, and gratitude. Behind every dish is a story of farmers and care. At CropLife Africa Middle East, we support safe, sustainable food for today and the seasons ahead. #GoodFriday #FoodSecurity #SustainableAgriculture

April highlights food security, sustainability, and farmer safety. Across Africa & the Middle East, urgent challenges demand coordinated solutions and a shift from silos to systems. From field to future, we support resilient, sustainable food systems. #FoodSecurity

As March ends, 1 message stands out: sustainable agriculture requires consistent commitment. From water stewardship to food safety & climate smart farming, innovation and responsibility must move together. Thank you to partners driving resilient food systems across AME.

Reducing waste is key to sustainable ag and resilient food systems. On the International Day of Zero Waste, CropLife Africa Middle East highlights science based innovation, stewardship and circular practices that reduce losses, optimise inputs and protect natural resources.

Zero waste starts long before disposal. Responsible crop protection use, safe storage and proper disposal reduce environmental impact. Stewardship, container collection and farmer training help prevent waste and protect ecosystems while supporting sustainable agriculture.

CropLife Africa Middle East remains committed to driving this initiative forward, helping to shape the future of sustainable farming.

- this initiative aims to promote precision agriculture, enhance user safety, ensure food safety, and strengthen food security. It also reinforces the adoption of good agricultural practices that safeguard farmers’ health and protect the environment.

Yesterday, our CEO, Stella Simiyu, had the privilege of representing CropLife Africa Middle East at the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between aak-GROW/CropLife Kenya and Fahari Aviation.

As the International Day of Zero Waste approaches, a key question is how ag can produce more while wasting less. Crop protection helps prevent losses from pests and disease, saving land, water and energy. Innovation and precision tools support productive, low waste food systems.

Water is the foundation of ag and ag must protect it. On #WorldWaterDay, CL AME highlights science based practices that support food security while safeguarding water resources. Innovation, stewardship and farmer training help ensure productive and water resilient farming.

Eid Mubarak from CropLife Africa Middle East 🌙 Across Africa and the Middle East, we celebrate the farmers and communities who continue to nurture the land and feed the future. May this Eid bring peace, prosperity, and a season of growth for all.

Water stewardship starts long before World Water Day. Responsible crop protection use, correct dosing, safe storage and disposal helps protect rivers and groundwater. Buffer zones, training and label adherence reduce risk and safeguard shared water resources.

As #WorldWaterDay approaches, we ask: how do we grow more food with less water? Crop protection helps farmers manage pests and protect yields, making crops more water efficient. Innovation and precision tools boost productivity while conserving scarce water resources.

MRLs start in the field, not at the border. Compliance depends on good ag practices, correct application timing, pre harvest intervals and proper record keeping. Training and stewardship help farmers meet MRL standards, protect markets and support safe, resilient food systems.
