Project Description

This project aims to support improved water use efficiency and productivity among companies in the agri-processing sector in South Africa, in order to promote sector competitiveness and sustainability. It will work with stakeholders to identify key water efficiency needs and priorities, develop tools to support benchmarking and best practice, address specific policy and regulatory issues, engage with targeted agri-processing companies to provide advisory and implementation support on water efficiency measures, and share knowledge and experiences. The project will also share knowledge and experiences gained in South Africa with agri-processing companies in other parts of Sub-Saharan Africa.
