Burkina Faso: Captain Ibrahim Traoré, committed to transforming agriculture to stimulate economic and social development through the financing of structuring projects

Captain Ibrahim Traoré is a source of pride for the people of Burkina Faso. In addition to his efforts to restore national security, Captain Ibrahim Traoré is pursuing an ambitious vision for Burkina Faso to make agriculture a key driver of economic development, social fulfilment and the fight against unemployment.

Under the leadership of Captain Ibrahim Traoré, a number of measures have been taken to bring this vision to life. The initiative to provide substantial funding to farmers in Burkina Faso has taken on a significant dimension. This includes a 500 billion CFA franc (over 762 million euros) programme to develop eight strategic sectors; a 200 billion CFA franc package to combat food insecurity; and a 22 billion CFA franc plan to cultivate 11,000 hectares and produce nearly 200,000 tonnes of cereals…

The aim is to catalyse the development of the agricultural sector by providing farmers with the resources they need to modernise and develop their activities. This initiative by Captain Ibrahim Traoré promises a bright future for the people of Burkina Faso, both in the short and long term. By investing in agriculture, Captain Traoré’s initiative is generating jobs throughout the agricultural sector, from production to distribution. This makes a significant contribution to the fight against unemployment in Burkina Faso.

Agriculture is a pillar of Burkina Faso’s economy. By supporting agricultural development, this initiative strengthens the country’s economic stability by increasing food production, reducing imports and boosting exports. By improving agricultural practices and investing in the food supply chain, Burkina Faso can ensure greater food security for its population, an essential element of social well-being.

The funds allocated to farmers by the Burkina Faso government contribute to the modernisation of farms, access to technology and training. This enables rural communities to prosper, creating a balance between urban and rural areas. Captain Ibrahim Traoré’s initiative also promotes sustainable farming practices, reducing the impact on the environment and helping to preserve Burkina Faso’s natural resources.

Captain Ibrahim Traoré’s commitment to agriculture as a catalyst for economic and social development is proof of his determination to improve the quality of life of every Burkinabe. This initiative is a major step towards a more prosperous and equitable Burkina Faso, for both present and future generations.
