Dr. Qu expressed enthusiasm for strengthening the partnership, acknowledging the ATM Strategy’s potential to drive Malawi’s journey towards inclusive wealth and digitization by 2063.
This collaboration is set to revolutionize Malawi’s agricultural landscape, empowering smallholder farmers to adopt climate-smart practices and transition to sustainable agriculture.
