West Africa
Senegal
With visionary leadership, Senegal's energy sector is witnessing transformative growth. The nation's strategic partnerships within the Mauritania, Senegal, Gambia, Guinea-Bissau and Guinea-Conakry(MSGBC) region are pivotal to its energy and economic trajectory. Initiatives like the Senergy 2 solar project provides evidence about Senegal’s energy source diversification agenda.
Senegal is among the most stable and promising countries in the West Africa region, but has experienced recent political upheaval and low economic growth rates in recent years with only a small percentage of growth attributable to agriculture. Of recent, Senegal’s growing investment in agriculture has opened the door for progress. Senegal is transforming into a hotbed of investment opportunities, thanks to its substantial infrastructural investments. The creation of special economic zones and industrial parks presents businesses with an environment conducive to growth. The allure of sectors ripe for development makes Senegal a top choice for investors eyeing opportunities in West Africa.
Gambia
In Gambia, the agricultural sector is the most important sector of the Gambian economy contributing 32% of the gross domestic product, providing employment and income for 80% of the population, and accounting for 70% of the country's foreign exchange earnings. It remains the prime sector to raise income levels, for investments to improve food security and reduce levels of poverty.
Mali
Mali is an agro - pastoral country, the rural lands, that is to say the crop and pasture land, cover 64 percent of the territory. Mali's great potential wealth lies the production of agricultural commodities, livestock, and fish. The most productive agricultural area lies along the banks of the Niger River, the Inner Niger Delta and the south western region around Sikasso.
Ghana
The vision of the Ministry is a modernised agriculture culminating in a structurally transformed economy and evident in food security, employment opportunities and reduced poverty. Ghana has embarked on transformational investment opportunities. The creation of special economic zones and industrial parks presents businesses with an environment conducive to growth and depth. This opens Ghana as a top choice destination for investors eyeing opportunities in West Africa.
South West Africa :
Angola
Agriculture in Angola has a tremendous potential. Angola is a potentially rich agricultural country, with fertile soils, a favourable climate, and about 57.4 million ha of agricultural land, including more than 5.0 million ha of arable land .
North Africa
Tunisia
The agricultural sector continues to occupy an important place in the Tunisian economy, generating over 10% of gross domestic product (GDP) and contributing actively to the creation of employment and balance-of payment through exports, most obviously in its major role in ensuring the country's food security.
