TNAU signed MOU with Mali

Tamil Nadu Agricultural University and the Republic of Mali inked an MOU, which will see the transfer of agricultural technology to the west African country.

Ever since Mali established its embassy in New Delhi, the African nation has been trying to improve ties with India and collaborate with the country across all sectors.

Under the MoU, the varsity will transfer technological know-how, provide equipment and give crop varieties suitable for growing in the African nation. In return, Mali, which is the highest producer of cotton in Africa, will export its cotton to India. TNAU will send two experts to Mali to study our soil conditions and will advise us on what sort of crops to grow and when.
