African Rice Initiative

The African Rice Initiative (ARI) is a program that promotes the development and improvement of rice farming in Africa. It aims to increase rice production through better research, technology, and farming practices, helping farmers grow more rice efficiently. By doing so, ARI supports food security, rural employment, and economic growth across the continent. The initiative also encourages collaboration among governments, research institutions, and farmers to share knowledge and resources, ensuring sustainable and resilient rice farming systems that meet growing demand in Africa.
