Deal #4055

Investment of 1 000 000Euros. CASL originally planned to grow rice in the Fouta area, but was expelled from the first commune where it wanted to establish its activities. The company had initially requested 4,000 hectares of land in one holding, but customary elites required conditions of sale that the CASL considered too demanding. The CASL subsequently approached a second commune where it requested 1,500 hectares, but the populations rejected the proposal. CASL finally decided to its activities in the Delta.Since the peak of 2,500 hectares of sown land in 2019, the company under Senegalese law and with French capital seems to have withdrawn from the production of paddy rice.
