Modern Agriculture Solutions continued to champion its support to women by participating actively in women’s programs. This time it teamed up with other stakeholders in the Agriculture and Agribusiness sector to share information and exhibit at the first time ever Copperbelt Conference for Women in Agribusiness. The conference which hosted more than one hundred women in farming, was held on the 24th September, 2022 at Zambia Army Barracks, Mawlaik Banquet Hall in Kitwe. Among other key partners were Nkoka Women in Agrobusiness, Grizzly Mining, Saro, Camco, Seedco, Sweeney and Amiran.
The company made an engaging presentation on the theme “Empowering you through climate SMART, effective, affordable methods and technologies”. The presenter was the CEO and Chief Technical Director of Modern Agriculture Solutions Mr. Changala Eustace Yambayamba. His powerful presentation stimulated the interest of participants who were keen to gain information on available SMART irrigation systems and the profitability of onion growing as a business. The session was largely interactive and has culminated into the creation of an active Whatsapp group called Onion Growers CB with 92 active participants specifically for those interested in onion growing on the Copperbelt.
