Togo teamed up with Morocco’s Phosphate Office (OCP) to carry out its agricultural development project, via mechanization and local fertilizer production.

The two parties signed two agreements in this framework on May 31, on the sidelines of a top-class meeting on fertilizer security that Lomé recently hosted. The agreements respectively aim to bolster agricultural mechanization in Togo and improve fertilizer supply by setting up a phosphate fertilizer plant in the country.

The documents were signed by the Togolese ministers of agriculture and mining, Antoine Lekpa and Mila Aziablé, respectively, and the head of the OCP for Africa, Mohamed Anouad Jamali.
