🌱 Did you know that access to the right rice seed can transform a farming community?

Africa Rice Center established the Rice Seed Service Unit (RSSU) to make sure partners — from governments to NGOs to seed companies — always have access to quality, climate-smart rice varieties.

Here's how the RSSU gets seeds where they need to go:
🔹 Direct seed sales — quick access for immediate needs
