The Africa Fertilizer Agribusiness Conference is collaboration between CRU and The African Fertilizer and Agribusiness Partnership (AFAP).
Due to this unique partnership we can offer unrivalled networking opportunities with senior decision makers from the biggest fertilizer buyers and manufacturers in some of the world’s fastest growing fertilizer markets. The event will focus on the role of fertilizers within African agribusiness and how the African agricultural industry can work with international partners to strengthen and improve its agricultural output.
Delegates will benefit from three days of dedicated networking opportunities and a comprehensive programme of high level presentations covering key market trends, project updates and supply and demand forecasts.
Being held in Dar es Salaam, a key hub for regional trade, and timed to coincide with the seasonal procurement negotiations, the event offers participants the chance to make new connections and gain first-hand knowledge on the progress of the African fertilizer projects that will be impacting global prices.
Drawing on CRU’s technical event experience, the Africa Fertilizer Agribusiness conference will also feature an extensive exhibition of the the world’s cutting edge fertilizer and agribusiness technologies and services.
