ProvisionGard™ : Protects your products, protect your brand. ProvisionGard™ enables millers, food processors, packaging manufacturers, and other food supply-chain businesses to add insect protection to existing food packaging. The treatment can be incorporated during normal packaging production, requires no major changes to filling or distribution processes, and has been reported by the provider at approximately USD 3.50 per 1,000 treated packets, creating an opportunity to reduce infestation-related returns and product losses.
Farm-to-Feed Innovation: Turning local by-products into affordable, high-quality livestock feed Small-scale Feed Production Using Local Agricultural By-products transforms locally available agricultural and agro-industrial resources into nutritionally balanced livestock feed through locally adapted formulations, training, and appropriately selected processing equipment. The technology enables businesses, cooperatives, and farmer organizations to establish feed production and processing services adapted to local resources, infrastructure, production scale, and market demand. Local feed can be produced at approximately 34% lower cost than comparable imported feed concentrates, creating opportunities for competitive feed production, processing services, local equipment manufacturing, and supply. Initially developed and commercially deployed in Tunisia, the technology has also been implemented in Mali and Ethiopia using production configurations adapted to local conditions.
Activating Soil Life for Sustainable Productivity The concept of TOKYO8 is rooted in 35 years of microbial research conducted by Taiyo Yuka, a company specializing in detoxifying high-concentration sludge from Tokyo’s urban centers. By leveraging this expertise, they developed a liquid microbial preparation designed to restore the natural relationship between plants and soil organisms, which has been weakened by modern conventional farming methods using chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Originally developed to revive degraded soils, the technology improves nutrient availability and is highly effective across a wide range of Crops, with documented success in increasing the yields of Rice, Maize, Onion, Potato, and Tomato by up to 20%. Since its introduction in Africa in 2021, TOKYO8 has expanded to more than 13 African countries through an innovative local production franchise model. With operational production units already established in Malawi, the technology combines proven field performance with scalable manufacturing and distribution opportunities, creating sustainable business growth across the agricultural value chain.

Smart farming support—anytime, anywhere. farmbetter helps cooperatives and agribusinesses improve supply chain performance through digital advisory and farmer engagement tools. The 3-in-1 platform enables field agents to support more farmers, ensures consistent production practices, and provides dashboards to track member progress and improve input or output coordination. Cooperatives gain loyalty, processors improve quality and volumes, and both reduce extension costs, while boosting climate resilience and productivity across their networks.
The largest free resource for biological plant protection! As markets shift toward more sustainable and environmentally responsible agriculture, agribusinesses face the dual challenge of complying with evolving regulations and meeting growing demand for safer pest control options. Yet, limited visibility and fragmented data across countries often constrain product reach and adoption. The CABI BioProtection Portal offers a solution by serving as a centralized, accessible platform—both online and offline—where businesses can showcase their officially registered bioprotection products to farmers, advisors, and institutions. By facilitating product discovery by crop and pest, the portal opens new market opportunities, strengthens regulatory transparency, and supports the expansion of eco-friendly agricultural input supply chains.
BSFL proteins for sustainable local fish and chicken feed production A major challenge for fish and chicken farming in sub-Saharan Africa is the lack of a consistent and reliable supply of feed throughout the year. The rising cost of feed, which makes up 60-70% of total production expenses, adds to this problem. At the same time, about 30-40% of food produced today is lost or wasted, leading to large amounts of organic waste and animal manure that harm the environment if not properly managed. The traditional way of producing and consuming goods also creates issues for the economy, ecosystems, and society. To address these challenges, Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae composting offers a smart solution. This technology tackles two key problems: managing organic waste and reducing the high cost of animal feed in the region. BSF larvae turn organic waste into valuable protein feed for animals and nutrient-rich fertilizer, cutting down on waste sent to landfills and reducing environmental harm. The larvae are highly efficient at transforming organic by-products into protein-rich feed, providing a more sustainable option for fish and chicken farming. By reusing agricultural waste, BSF technology supports a circular economy that benefits both the environment and the economy.
With QualiSani, no more toxic compounds such as Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in your smoked fish and grilled meat, and reduction of cancer risk for consumers. Traditional methods of grilling and smoking food, particularly in African countries, have long been associated with health risks due to the formation of harmful compounds such as Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs). These carcinogenic substances are produced when food is exposed to smoke and high temperatures, and their presence in grilled and smoked products has raised significant public health concerns. Studies conducted in Benin country have revealed alarming levels of PAHs in smoked and grilled meats and fish, often exceeding international safety standards. This contamination is linked to the direct exposure of food to smoke, the type of fuel used (often wood), and the inefficient design of traditional processing equipment. The accumulation of PAHs not only poses a cancer risk to consumers but also hampers the marketability of these products in regions with stricter food safety regulations. Addressing this challenge requires innovations in food processing technologies that can reduce or eliminate the formation of PAHs while maintaining or improving the efficiency and productivity of the smoking and grilling process. The development of improved equipment, such as QualiSani, represents a significant step towards safer food processing practices. These advancements aim to protect consumers' health, enhance the quality of grilled and smoked products, and support the sustainable development of small to medium-sized food processing enterprises.
