``Biodiversity and proteins`` project in Southern Togo

Development of a sector of forgotten legumes

As part of a partnership launched in June 2020, AFDI (Association Agriculteurs Français et Développement International) is supporting UROPC-M (Farmers’ Organization of the Maritime Region, in southern Togo) in the diversification and development of three legume crops: pigeon pea, bambara-bean and groundnut. While providing local proteins to the population, the project aims to increase the added value generated by these productions by developing efficient local processing and marketing channels.

NOTRE PARTENAIRE

AFDI (Agriculteurs Français et Développement International) is an international solidarity association. It builds partnerships between the French agricultural world and those of developing countries. AFDI was created 40 years ago by four French agricultural organizations: APCA (Chambre d’Agriculture), CNMCAA (Caisse nationale de la mutualité, du crédit et de la coopération agricole), FNSEA (Fédération nationale des syndicats d’exploitants agricoles) and JA (Jeunes Agriculteurs).
