Symrise supports reforestation. We have been worki Symrise supports reforestation. We have been working with communities for several years with our initiative in Madagascar to positively impact the region’s forests.

We show you a few amazing parts of this initiative to support reforestation.

We reduce deforestation by introducing briquettes made from rice husk to offer farmers an alternative source of energy allowing 50% of energy saving. Crop diversification also helps combat deforestation. By developing ginger production, farmers can diversify their revenue without exploiting the forest.

With fewer threats, nature wins where Madagascar’s farmers win.
