OUR PROJECTS
At AATF, we believe that the use of appropriate technology can improve agricultural productivity in Africa. To this end, we support farmers in Africa and especially smallholder farmers in their quest for access to the best agricultural technology. Through various our projects, we have united key stakeholders and positioned technology transfer as a priority for Africa’s agricultural progress. The foundation projects cover a diversified crop portfolio that combines cereals, roots and tubers, legumes and horticultural crops.
