Burkina Faso: Captain Ibrahim Traoré’s vision of food sovereignty becomes a tangible reality
The ambitious presidential initiative for agriculture, spearheaded by Captain Ibrahim Traoré, is bearing fruit with very encouraging results. This is evident from the recent wheat harvest attended by Commander Ismaël Sombié, Minister of Agriculture, Animal Resources, and Fisheries. This event marks a major step forward in the pursuit of food self-sufficiency, demonstrating that the efforts made by the government and farmers are paying off.
One of the most remarkable aspects of this initiative is the complete success of the first wheat cultivation tests on thousands of hectares across the country. With a 100% success rate, this experiment proves that Burkina Faso has strong agricultural potential that can reduce its dependence on cereal imports. This success is the result of a well-thought-out strategy, combining the modernization of agricultural techniques, support for producers, and the mobilization of the nation’s active forces.
Thus, Captain Ibrahim Traoré’s vision for food sovereignty is becoming a tangible reality. The results achieved strengthen the hope for agricultural production capable of sustainably feeding the Burkinabe population. With this momentum, the country is firmly on the path to food independence, illustrating the relevance of political and economic choices in favor of rural development.
