We Have One Goal
To cultivate and harvest healthy farm produce
The world needs to produce at least 50% more food to feed 9 billion people. Agriculture has been projected as a major driving force of Africa’s economic resurgence and in Nigeria, its contribution to the GDP is put at about 22 per cent. However about 90 per cent of agricultural output is accounted for by subsistence farmers.
Unseasonal rains and heavy dew during flowering and fruiting periods are the major factors which adversely affect the yield and quality of cashew nut. Cloudy conditions, high RH and heavy dew are favourable for outbreak of insect pests and diseases. Drought conditions drastically reduce cashew nut production. The climate change-induced drought can be partially mitigated by adopting mulching, conservation agriculture and soil and water conservation measures, by providing protective/drip irrigation/fertigation during the fruit development stages.
Nigeria has the second highest burden of stunted children in the world, with a national prevalence rate of 32 percent of children under five.The underlying causes of malnutrition in Nigeria are poverty, inadequate food production, inadequate food intake, ignorance and uneven distribution of food, poor food preservation techniques, improper preparation of foods, food restrictions and taboos, and poor sanitation.

Grown With Love on Our Farms
My father isn’t a farmer either is my mother a farmer. I never lived in the farm rather did I school on the farm. Sometimes I almost want to give up but since I left my corporate job in 2015 to start up this agribusiness venture, something has always stirred in my mind: WHY is the sector so left behind that nobody thinks or cares about people that bring food to our table?
Yes! I am not a capitalist. I am more of a socialist. That’s why I take bold steps and calculated risk.
My ideal job is to be a social agropreneur, working with hands dirty in the farm field and also with my innovative pen in a smart agrihub that provides me and my farmer’s cooperative the ability to plan and execute transforming strategy towards food security…”
