AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Climate Risk: El Niño is bringing sharply different threats across Africa: East Africa is bracing for heavy rains and flooding, while South Africa faces forecasts of hotter, drier conditions that could strain crops and water supplies. Farm Economics: South African dairy producers face rising input costs, animal disease and weak bargaining power, even as supermarket milk prices remain high. Crop Innovation: Ghanaian scientist Pamela Afokpe won the 2026 Borlaug Field Award for developing commercial opportunities for indigenous vegetables, helping smallholders access improved seed. Agricultural Finance: FCMB and the European Investment Bank have partnered on €85 million in financing for Nigerian agriculture and related value chains. Market Access: China Southern’s new Guangzhou–Nairobi cargo route is carrying East African produce to China, opening a faster trade link for fresh agricultural goods.
