Adapting the Global Food System to Climate Change

We cannot ignore facts

  • Over 70%

    of agriculture worldwide is practiced by small and marginal farmers

  • 25% Less

    of potentially attainable yields of Africa’s main cereal crops have stagnated

  • 5% - 20%

    reduction in food security with each flood or
    drought

  • Over 95%

    of Africa’s food production needs are currently met through rainfed agriculture and is vulnerable to drought

HydroMmea

HydroMmea is a smart material used as a soil conditioner on farms. It is uniquely prepared to absorb a large quantity of water and significantly improve the soil moisture. It loosely holds the moisture making water easily available to the root system. Thus, crops do not experience moisture stress, and soil health is maintained. A healthy crop means, lower cost of cultivation, food security, assured income to farmers. HydroMmea is fully degradable in the soil within twelve months.
