AGRA (Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa)

The Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA) is an initiative aimed at improving agriculture across the continent. Launched in 2006, it focuses on increasing food security and improving the livelihoods of smallholder farmers. AGRA works by promoting innovative farming techniques, providing access to better seeds and fertilizers, and improving market access for farmers. The goal is to boost agricultural productivity and ensure farmers can produce enough food to support their communities, ultimately leading to economic growth and reduced poverty in Africa.
