In February, ACA president Carlos Costa traveled to Côte d'Ivoire to support efforts to increase farmer income, exports, and economic growth of the cashew value chain. Rongead, a French non-governmental organization, and its Ivorian partner INADES (Institut africain pour le développement économique et social-Centre Africain de Formation) hosted a national cashew conference February 11-13 in Abidjan to share results of their work with the private sector and cooperatives, including training on quality control, controlling cashew diseases, basic processing techniques, and improving marketing cashew products.Participants debated quality, transformation, commercialization, and institutional and legal frameworks issues. Costa briefed participants on ACA’s objectives and organization in African producer countries. The ACA will soon publish a summary of the event on its website.
