What a privilege and an inspiration to visit Sonpara in Gujarat last week and see first-hand how farmers can brew their own bio-pesticides and deploy the multiple techniques of sustainable and regenerative agriculture, with quantified results on yield and input costs.

I commend DG Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala's leadership in ensuring cotton is part of the outcome of the 13th Ministerial Conference in February 2024. The @wto plays a vital role in supporting cotton producers and their livelihoods. wto.org/english/news_e…
