Biofertiliser specific to rice – innovation of the week by PROVID2

The Projet de Vulgarisation des Technologies et Innovations pour un Développement Durable (PROVID2), third-party project of PDTIE,  aims to ensure access to technological innovations for vulnerable populations in Cameroon and the DRC through community appropriation of research results and innovations.

Each week, PROVID2 highlights an environmental technology and innovation for sustainable development and poverty reduction developed by innovators in Cameroon and the Democratic Republic of Congo.


This week, discover an innovative formulation of biofertiliser specific to rice, developed by Dr MEYIA ELLA Arielle Lina.

🌱This solution aims to enrich the fertility of soils dedicated to rice cultivation while reducing dependence on expensive and environmentally harmful chemical fertilisers.
