The agricultural sector is the first lever of Mali's economy. The contribution of rice in this sector is crucial because in addition to its contribution to the country's economic growth, rice plays a central role in food security.
Considered a strategic product in Mali, rice is given particular attention in terms of public policies and political issues. It is perceived as the main commodity for achieving food security, improving farmers' incomes, and meeting growing urban demand at a reasonable price. Although production is rising sharply, it does not cover the needs of the population. Thus, despite the potential of the irrigated land, Mali imports rice to fill its production deficit. The AGRIMA rice project aims to solve part of the problem.
