Chia is our arrowhead solution towards the crop enterprise diversification issue for African farmers, especially those dependent on tobacco production. Mitigation of deforestation inspired this journey to encourage alternative crops with greater financial benefits for growers positioning them to serve the global community that love sustainably produced crops.
A whole grain super food with various nutritional properties like high omega -3 content, high fiber content, rich in proteins, gluten free and rich in minerals, Chia seeds are believed to aid in various health management scenarios. The oil and bi-products are sought to contribute to the nutraceutical, cosmetic and animal feed sectors. Packed with micronutrients, Chia seeds are gluten free, rich in Omega-3 oils, fibre, proteins and are a good source of minerals like iron and magnesium.
