AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Biopesticides for food security: A new push for tree- and plant-based pesticides in sub-Saharan Africa highlights growing market momentum, with neem and other Madagascan-relevant species cited as underused assets that could help farmers meet tighter pesticide-residue rules. Water stress and shipping risk: Satellite reporting on disappearing water shows how drought-driven shrinkage is already disrupting grain transport and hydropower, a warning for Madagascar’s own water-dependent industries. Climate pressure on children: UNICEF says almost all children worldwide face climate hazards, with overlapping drought, heat, floods and disease risks—an indirect hit to labor, schooling and future workforce stability. Broadband competition: Ookla data says Starlink is outperforming most terrestrial providers across Sub-Saharan Africa, with Madagascar the standout exception—raising pressure on local telecom investment and service quality. Road infrastructure upgrade: China-built National Road No. 12 (phase one) is officially completed in southeastern Madagascar, adding bridges and a new transport artery for the Anosy region. Vanilla market strain: The global vanilla trade remains oversupplied and stuck at historic lows despite policy relief, with no coordinated Madagascar plan yet to protect growers.
