About
Better Leaf aims to combine Israeli research and development with on-the-ground knowledge to create novel biopesticides from Ghanaian medicinal plants.
Biopesticides have many advantages over 'traditional' pesticides - they are less energy-intensive to produce, less harmful to the environment when used, and with beneficial unit costs to the farmer.
Biopesticides can also increase yields and lead to greater food security.
