𝗔𝗴𝗿𝗶𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗧𝗮𝗻𝘇𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗮 This week, our team organized an Executive Forum in Dar Es Salaam, for the leadership of Tanzania Commercial Bank (TCB) to advance their Agricultural Finance Strategy. Together with TCB's directors and senior management, we reviewed critical implementation steps to boost agricultural lending. Our experts will train TCB staff and support selected branches to expand their loan portfolio for agricultural SMEs. This effort directly aligns with TCB's mission to empower small and medium farmers in #Tanzania. “𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘨𝘰𝘢𝘭 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘛𝘊𝘉 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘯𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺, 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘢𝘳𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘦𝘯𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘵𝘺, 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘢𝘱𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘭”, says TCB's Director of Credit, Daniel Mbotto.

𝙐𝙠𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙚 - 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙣𝙚𝙭𝙩 𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙥: 𝙨𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙙 𝙥𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙖𝙡 𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙐𝙠𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙖𝙣 𝙁𝙤𝙤𝙙 𝙎𝙖𝙛𝙚𝙩𝙮 𝘼𝙜𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙮 𝙤𝙣 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙡 𝙞𝙣 𝙤𝙧𝙜𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙘 𝙛𝙖𝙧𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙜 Since August last year, #Ukrainian farmers and processors have been able to obtain certification under the Ukrainian law on organic farming. The Food Safety Agency (FSA) of the Ukrainian oblasts plays an important role in controlling these organic farms. To support the representatives of the consumer protection authorities in this task, the "German-Ukrainian Cooperation in Organic Farming (COA)" project, funded by the Bundesministerium für Ernährung und Landwirtschaft held a second, multi-day practical training on organic farms. For security reasons, the training was held this time in the Republic of Moldova with the participation of Marina Ilusca from the Moldovan Ministry of Agriculture and Food Industry and Tatjana Golban from the Moldovan Food Safety Agency were also present throughout the training. Both authorities are responsible for organic farming topics in the Republic of #Moldova. The group was trained by Ksenia Guliyeva, Oksana Motrynchuk, Elisabeth Christine Rüegg Rüegg and @Stefan Dreesmann, Dr. All of these trainers have many years of experience in certification and control in organic farming. An organic farm, an organic mill and a large organic grain trader were chosen in Moldova for the practical training. Practical control was presented and practiced on these sites. In addition, various aspects of monitoring in organic farming were covered in more depth theoretically. "I am very pleased that this second training was also carried out so successfully," said Dr. Stefan Dreesmann, head of the "German-Ukrainian Cooperation in Organic Farming" project. "We have just had some very intensive days, during which the understanding of what to look out for during organic inspections by the Ukrainian authorities has grown. I would like to thank all participants in this training: the three Moldovan organic farms, the organic farming association MOVCA from Moldova, which supported us with many organizational matters, the experienced team of trainers, the translators, and especially the participants from FSA from the Ukrainian oblasts, who, once again contributed greatly to the successful conduct of this training," continued Dr. Dreesmann. "I am also very pleased that two official representatives of the Moldovan authorities responsible for organic farming accompanied the training throughout and that there was an intensive exchange of ideas between the Ukrainian and Moldovan authorities and the project," continued Dr. Dreesmann. A third training course for the representatives of the Ukrainian FSA is planned for late autumn.
