The Cropwatch Africa Difference
Cropwatch Africa is a specialized Service Provider which focuses on supporting Farmers, Communities, Industries and Governments across Southern Africa, in safeguarding their resources, by ensuring the early detection of invasive pests and diseases before they cause significant damage.
Efficient monitoring is the first line of defense against damage.
