    As part of the project to improve cashew production and processing capabilities, Benin and Brazil signed a partnership agreement. Its value is estimated at 832 million CFA francs, and this agreement will be implemented within the framework of the process of exchange and exchange of experiences between the two countries. The Cashew Production and Processing Potential Improvement Project is a project aimed at increasing cashew production in Benin. The ambassador assured: “For the effective implementation of this project with short, medium and long-term socio-economic impact on the Benin economy, we will do whatever is necessary to ensure that the actors receive the necessary support and follow-up”. From Brazil near Benin, Regina Celia Dolifera. As the third cashew producing country in West Africa, Benin, as part of this project, aims to plant 5,000 hectares in 3 or 4 years. According to the Minister of Agriculture, there will be no significant contribution to achieving this objective. “The areas where we want to work are so sensitive, so worrisome, so essential that small streams create large rivers,” suggested Gaston Dushoe before specifying that, when creating the model, we would have resources to scale. “We are going to design a training program in production and processing. What can be fairer and more beautiful than welcome”, rejoiced the ministerial official. This is the first time that Brazil has financed an agricultural project in Benin. In addition to cashew and cotton, the state is committed to supporting the development of staple food products for the sustainability of the school canteen program.
