• We are pleased to announce that the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (#EBRD) is providing a €200 million loan to OCP Group for new desalination facilities in #Morocco. This will enhance water security and promote sustainable resource management. The new facilities, at #JorfLasfar and #Safi, will have a combined capacity of some 35 million m³ and will play a crucial role in supporting OCP Group’s fertilizer production – essential for global #FoodSecurity – while reducing the use of freshwater. This initiative underscores our commitment to addressing #water scarcity and fostering sustainable industrial solutions. At OCP Group, we are dedicated to minimizing our water footprint, targeting a reduction of 3 million m³ in annual water consumption and reaching a use of 100% non-conventional water by the end of this year. This partnership with the EBRD is a testament to our commitment to sustainability and resilience.

  📍#PPF – Paris At the Forum de Paris sur la Paix, Leonardus Vergütz, Chief Innovation Officer at OCP Group, highlighted the transformative potential of African agriculture through two pivotal panels. During the panel on “Unlocking african agriculture for development, sustainability, and global stability,” Mr. Vergütz stressed #soilhealth as a cornerstone for achieving sustainability and stability through climate-resilient agriculture. "Nutrition security begins with healthy #soils. In the one-health approach, soil health is essential, as it ensures the right balance of #nutrients and #micronutrients needed for crops, animals, and people to thrive. Without fertile, nutrient-rich soils, we cannot achieve the nutrition security vital for human and environmental well-being." In today's panel, “African smallholder farmers: What financing for what practices?”, he emphasized the urgent need for innovative, tailored financing solutions to empower #smallholderfarmers. "Africa's soils, among the oldest and most nutrient-deprived in the world, pose a significant barrier to higher agricultural yields. To break the cycle of low productivity and poverty, #Africa needs a locally adapted agricultural transformation that makes productive farming accessible and affordable," he explained. Mr. Vergütz also stressed that "addressing Africa’s agricultural challenges requires a collaborative effort between public, private, and development sectors to share risks and pool resources. Initiatives like the OCP-World Bank partnership are key to securing the necessary funding and support for farmers, driving long-term impact and #sustainablegrowth."UM6P France - ATLAS - Agricultural Transitions Lab for African Solutions

  📍#CFS52 - FAO Headquarters, Rome Earlier today, on the sidelines of the Committee on World Food Security (#CFS52), we proudly co-organized a side event with Morocco and PSM, focusing on #ReducingInequalities in #FoodSystems through enterprise and entrepreneurship. Hosted at #FAO Headquarters in Rome, the event highlighted how innovative solutions and entrepreneurship can transform #FoodSecurity for vulnerable communities. 🌱 - Abdellah Larhmaid, Deputy Permanent Representative of Morocco, noted: “Support for smallholder farmers is a key pillar in reducing inequalities in food systems. Through targeted initiatives, we empower them to thrive and contribute to resilient, sustainable food systems.” Mr. Larhmaid added, “Collective action is essential; we cannot work in silos. By fostering public-private partnerships, we address the structural barriers to accessing finance, ensuring inclusive and #SustainableFoodSystems for all.” - Kenneth Obayuwana, CEO of Agritech Digest, addressed the essential role of funding and incubation: “Funding and market access are real challenges startups face. Supporting them with incubation and holistic solutions will make agri-startups more attractive.” - Rachid Moussadek, Senior Principal Scientist at ICARDA; International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas, highlighted the role of youth in sustainable agriculture: “Youth is more willing to make changes on the ground. It is important to connect them to our sustainable knowledge.” He pointed to #Tourba and Al Moutmir as examples of science-backed initiatives that empower #farmers and help close yield gaps. - Younes Addou, VP of Agribusiness and Sustainability at INNOVX, emphasized the importance of innovation: “We need to innovate by providing solutions that not only address #FoodSecurity issues but also create environmental value.” He continued, “Collaboration and partnerships are essential to foster a sustainable agricultural transition. New #incubation models holistically support startups as they scale activities for #SmallholderFarmers.” Through collaborative efforts like these, we’re committed to empowering rural communities and driving a more equitable global food system. 🌿 🌍

• At #ClimateWeekNYC, we had impactful discussions led by our Chief Global Affairs Officer, Meriem El Asraoui and our Chief Sustainability & Innovation Officer, Hanane Mourchid. 🟢 Meriem El Asraoui participated in the International Agri-Food Network (IAFN) event titled "Commit to Grow Equality: A Global Commitment to Enhancing Gender Equality in Agrifood Systems through Financing and Partnerships by 2030." She emphasized the crucial role of women in agriculture, stating, « Over 50% of Africa’s agricultural labor is performed by women, yet they face significant barriers in land access and decision-making. OCP AFRICA is dedicated to promoting women's inclusion through initiatives like the Women in Agribooster and Maison des Femmes programs, which empower women with resources, training, and access to markets. » 🟢 Hanane Mourchid also joined a high-level discussion organized by Boston Consulting Group (BCG) dedicated to climate action in the context of water scarcity. She emphasized: « As part of our climate adaptation efforts, we are unlocking the full potential of OCP's innovative ecosystem, fast-tracking capabilitie, and harnessing clean energy to urgently deliver cost competitive potable water to our communities, including the landlocked regions were we operate. Today, 125 Mm3/ year of desalinated industrial and potable water is already produced, and more than 100Mm3/year additional capacity is under construction. »#OCPForClimate #SustainableAgriculture #WomenEmpowerment #GreenWater
