OCP Group

This #WorldFoodDay marks 80 years of FAO’s leadership in building a food-secure future. Yet today, 673 million people still live with hunger and millions more face chronic food insecurity. Conflicts and climate change are major drivers, but so is soil degradation. Raising the productivity of soils is not just an opportunity, it’s a necessity. At OCP Group, we’re advancing food security through: • Customized fertilizers tailored to local soil needs • Agricultural extension services that empower farmers • Research and innovation through UM6P • Climate-smart farming that restores soil health and resilience Because sustainable agriculture starts in the soil – and grows through collaboration.  #FoodSecurity #SoilHealth #SustainableAgriculture #ClimateSmartFarming #InnovationForAfrica

Rural women are catalysts for agricultural transformation. This #InternationalDayofRuralWomen, OCP Group celebrates their leadership in building food security, resilience, and sustainable development. Through initiatives like the Women’s House of Sandiara in Senegal, where over 2,500 women entrepreneurs have been supported, we are investing in equitable access to knowledge, resources, and opportunity. Empowering women farmers is not just a social imperative. It’s a strategic pathway to a more sustainable future for all. #RuralWomen #Sustainability #Inclusion #Africa #WomenInAgriculture

At #ClimateWeekNYC, OCP Group’s Chief Global Affairs Officer, Ms. Meriem El Asraoui, joined Margaret Henry, Vice President of Sustainable and Regenerative Agriculture at PepsiCo, and other panelists to spotlight how investing in #farmerlivelihoods drives a just #agriculturaltransition and strengthens climate resilience. Speaking at the “Investing in Livelihoods” panel, Ms. El Asraoui shared how OCP is reshaping value chains through precision agronomy, local production, #carbonfarming, and blended finance : “#Soilhealth is livelihoods. And if we work together to support farmers with these inputs, we can catalyze real growth in yields, incomes, and carbon sinks together.” She also shared how “OCP complements agronomy with systems around farmers. Systems that turn regeneration into income, and local production that ensures supply is dependable and tailored to local needs.”   From 111 tailored fertilizer formulations to 249 Farmer Hubs reaching over 900,000 farmers, OCP is scaling what works, powered by science, rooted in equity. #FarmerLivelihoods #AgriFinance #FoodSystemsTransformation

As part of ongoing high-level discussions during #ClimateWeekNYC, Ms. Hanane Mourchid, Chief Sustainability & Innovation Officer at OCP Group, continues to engage with global leaders. This week she contributed to several events among which two key sessions convened by the World Economic Forum : •⁠ ⁠Alliance of CEO Climate Leaders Advisory Meeting •⁠ ⁠Chief Sustainability Officers Meeting: Scaling Global Solutions for Climate and Nature Ms. Mourchid underlined the strong business case of OCP’s green energy and green water programs. OCP is already on track to cover all its electricity needs through clean energy by 2027, while relying on 100% non-conventional water consumption through #desalination, wastewater reuse, and large-scale infrastructure like the Jorf Lasfar–Khouribga pipeline. These investments not only secure operations but also reinforce resilience for surrounding communities. She also emphasized that the business case for OCP’s customized fertilizers is already proven, delivering higher yields, improved soil health, and reduced emissions. Yet, she noted that scalability will depend on stronger collaboration across the entire food and agriculture value chain. #BusinessCase #GreenEnergy #WaterResilience #AgricultureInnovation #ClimateAction
