Every harvest tells two stories: the bounty gathered, and the quiet loss left behind in the fields. We spent time on the ground with local smallholder farmers to listen, observe, and validate what sustainable food preservation really means for their livelihood. Here is why🧵👇

This solution preserves food value while empowering local producers with reliable, modern technology.

Proudly funded by the @NigEducation as we build a more resilient agricultural future.

Post-harvest loss shouldn't be the price farmers pay for a bountiful harvest.

With the EcoSynergy Hybrid Dryer, drying tomatoes, peppers, vegetables, and other produce is now cleaner, faster, and more efficient.

Designed to bridge the gap between harvest and market .

I’ve said it my entire career: the middle class built America. And unions built the middle class. To every worker who's ever punched a clock, worked a double, or walked a line for fair wages – and to everyone who stands up for them, at the bargaining table, in the statehouse, or on the shop floor: thank you. This country runs in large part because of you.

Real innovation does not start in a workshop; it begins on the farm, shaped by the people who feed our communities. As we scale the EcoSynergy hybrid dryer, our commitment remains grounded in local realities. Follow our journey as we build for the hands that cultivate the soil.

Post-harvest loss is not just an agricultural deficit; it is an income theft. Decentralized drying shifts the bargaining power back to the farmer.

A gap we @ECOSYNERGYHQ tends to bridge!

Reliability is everything. By pairing solar power with continuous biogas heating, drying never stops when clouds gather or night falls. Farmers preserve crop quality, color, and market value around the clock.

Traditional open-sun drying leaves crops at the mercy of unpredictable weather, contamination, and sudden downpours. When drying stalls, value drops overnight.

And here's what one of the farmers said

Nigeria loses over $9 billion annually to post-harvest losses, stripping smallholder farmers of at least 15% of their hard earned income. At EcoSynergy, we believe engineering should directly solve these real-world challenges. 💡🌱

[ECOSYNERGY @ECOSYNERGYHQ]

Demonstration, and Shoren to experience the system firsthand and share their vital feedback.

We are proud to align this project with UN SDGs 2, 7,13 and 12 pushing for cleaner energy and zero hunger.

VC Celebrates FUNAABite’s National Grant Success, Encourages Innovation Participation

By Raymond Osemene

The Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB), has commended the outstanding achievement of one of its students, Mr. Oluwagbemiga Adeboye, who emerged as a beneficiary of a highly competitive Federal Government-backed Student Venture Capital Grant.

Mr. Adeboye, a final-year student of Agricultural and Bio-Resources Engineering in the College of Engineering (COLENG), earned the prestigious recognition for his innovative project titled "Hybrid Solar Dryer for Postharvest Preservation."

The grant programme, organised by the Federal Ministry of Education, attracted over 36,000 applications nationwide. From this pool, only 63 finalists were shortlisted, with just 45 ultimately receiving funding, placing the FUNAABite among a select group of top innovators.

Speaking at a ceremony held in his honour, the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Babatunde Kehinde, lauded the student’s accomplishment and commended the collective efforts of his mentors and institutional support units. He specifically acknowledged the contributions of the Centre for Entrepreneurial Studies (CENTS), the Career Services and Linkages Unit (CSLU), the Employability and Benchmarking Committee and the Department of Agricultural and Bioresources Engineering, COLENG, for their roles in nurturing entrepreneurial and innovative capacity among students.

The Vice-Chancellor also expressed appreciation to TETFund and GIZ for their support in organising the skill-driven career fair, which enhanced graduate employability and entrepreneurship exposure that gave him visibility.

He commended 720 Degrees Hub for supporting the entrepreneurial training of FUNAAB's final year students which focused on the CREATE module of GIZ Inspire, Create, Start and Scale (ICSS), noting that, the programme equips participants with entrepreneurial competencies to develop structured, innovative, and market-driven business models.

Describing the grant as more than a financial reward, the Vice-Chancellor noted that it symbolises creativity, resilience, and a commitment to excellence beyond academic requirements. He urged the beneficiary to maximise the opportunity by developing impactful solutions to societal challenges. “This success should not be an endpoint but a starting point,” he stated, emphasising the need to scale innovative ideas and contribute meaningfully to national development.

Prof. Kehinde further disclosed that the initiative, supported by the Bank of Industry, would reopen for applications in October. He, therefore, called on Colleges, Departments, and relevant Centres within the University to intensify mentorship efforts in preparation for future participation. He also encouraged students to embrace innovation and entrepreneurship alongside their academic pursuits, noting that such achievements, position graduates as job creators and solution providers.

Other speakers at the event, including Prof. Iyabode Kehinde, Alternate Chairperson of the Employability and Benchmarking Committee; Dean, COLENG, Prof. Adedayo Badejo; Director, CENTS, Prof. Sakiru Akinbode; former Director of CENTS, Prof. Emily Ayo-John; Head, CSLU, Prof. Elijah Obayelu, and the former Head, CSLU, Dr. Mathew Oose, emphasised accountability in the utilisation of public funds. They urged Mr. Adeboye to ensure that the project delivers tangible societal benefits and highlighted the importance of sustained institutional support to scale innovations to commercial viability.

They jointly appreciated the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFund) for its continued financial support towards advancing career services in FUNAAB.

In his response, Mr. Adeboye expressed gratitude to FUNAAB for providing a platform to showcase his potential. He also acknowledged the guidance and encouragement of his mentors, noting that their support created an enabling environment for his success.
