Agromonti champions safe agrochemical use at national exhibition as part of CSR commitment

Agromonti Company Ltd reaffirmed its commitment to sustainable agriculture and farmer welfare at the Agrochemical and Crop Protection Exhibition and Awards in Techiman, Bono East Region. As the main sponsor of the event, Agromonti partnered with the Agrihouse Foundation to promote the safe and responsible use of agrochemicals across Ghana and to educate farmers and stakeholders on best practices in crop protection. Mr. Dominic Donkoh, Managing Partner and Technical Director of Agromonti Company Ltd, delivering a keynote address on the Safe Use of Agrochemicals, stressed the urgent need for farmers, agrochemical dealers, and industry players to prioritise safety in chemical handling and application.

Mr. Donkoh stated, "Agrochemicals are tools, not shortcuts. When misused, they become a liability." He also stated, "Every bottle has a label for a reason. Ignoring dosage rates and PPE is not bravery - it is risking lives, damaging the environment, and threatening market access." Agromonti conducted a live demonstration on the correct use of PPE and the proper calibration of knapsack sprayers. The exhibition brought together leading manufacturers, importers, regulators, and farmers to promote innovation, knowledge sharing, and excellence in crop protection.

Agromonti also showcased educational materials on safe use and practical farming solutions during the event. Mr. Donkoh concluded, "Safe use is not an option. It is the only way to farm profitably, sustainably, and responsibly in 2026 and beyond."
