OCP Africa SA, a wholly owned subsidiary of OCP Group SA, and Togo’s agriculture ministry have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) under which the Moroccan company will launch a feasibility study for the construction of a phosphate-based fertilizer plant in Togo, according to Moroccan and Togo media reports.
The agreement is aimed at improving fertilizer supply in the Sub-Saharan country. No further details of the proposed facility were immediately available.
Under a second MOU, OCP Africa and the agriculture ministry have agreed to set up an agricultural service center offering mechanization services, irrigation, maintenance, agricultural inputs, and training and technical support to Togo’s farmers to increase the competitiveness of the country’s agricultural value chain.
