Syngenta Partners with Mazabuka AgriExpo 2025 to Drive Innovation and Farmer Empowerment
Syngenta, a global leader in agricultural science and technology, has announced a strategic partnership with the upcoming Mazabuka AgriExpo 2025, set for 10–11 October at the Mazabuka Turf Club in Southern Province. The collaboration aims to promote agricultural innovation, sustainability, and digital empowerment for Zambian farmers.
The Expo, organised by Lusaka Happening, will bring together thousands of farmers, agribusinesses, policymakers, researchers, and solution providers to showcase advancements in agri-technology, sustainable farming practices, and climate-smart innovations.
At the event, Syngenta will demonstrate Cropwise Grower, its flagship digital farming platform designed to help farmers make data-driven decisions on crop health, input optimisation, and productivity. The platform provides real-time agronomic recommendations, access to product information, and a directory of nearby retailers.
“We are excited to partner with the Mazabuka AgriExpo,” said Given Mudenda, Managing Director for Syngenta East and Southern Africa. “This platform aligns perfectly with our ambition to deepen our presence in Southern Province, connect with more growers, and offer tailored innovations that meet their unique needs. With tools like Cropwise, we are helping farmers shift from reactive to proactive farming.”
Southern Province remains one of Zambia’s most productive agricultural hubs, spanning maize, sugarcane, horticulture, and livestock. The Mazabuka AgriExpo serves as a critical platform for industry players, linking innovation with impact in a region central to Zambia’s food security.
The event comes at a crucial time as Zambia faces challenges of climate change, soil degradation, and food insecurity. Syngenta has reiterated its commitment to building resilience through science, sustainability, and digital inclusion.
“Kwanzangana puts people at the centre of development. By ensuring fairness, transparency, and accountability, it guarantees that mining prosperity is translated into real improvements in people’s lives,” he said.
