We are partnering with trained agric engineers from the University of Nigeria to design a sustainable solar powered irrigation system for eastern Nigeria farmers especially the hard hit rice farmers in Enugu state. Very exciting times ahead

Just watched documentary on Akwa Ibom state tomatoes production and marketing. It's very awesome what is going on there. I hope it's replicated in more state to ensure food security.
Land rights especially land and property inheritance must be restored to all women in Eastern Nigeria. This is the right thing to do. The supreme Court has ruled and it is basic human rights and must be respected. The advocacy is now
We @FoodSafetyandS1 are very proud of Scotland for this bold action. For years we have advocated for massive subsidy to menstrual health product. If reproductive health products have subsidy what of menstrual health we have no control over.
Acquisition of transferable skills will continue to define progress in our society. This is key to sustainable youth empowerment projects. @jaeet EDI we strive to equip young people with wealth creating skills through our partnerships with vocational centres. #AGSMEIS#Nirsal.
We are setting up a tactical team for development of smart agriculture platform for small holder farmers in Eastern Nigeria. We need volunteers with good knowledge of sensors, robotics, data analytics, drones technology. we are going to change the face of farming in Nigeria
Precision farming will drastically reduce pesticides herbicides and chemical fertilizers use as efficiency of inputs optimization will drive high yield farming models. We are getting there when drones can help us estimate yield and advice farmers how and when to sell
As rising cost of food continues in our communities we have to work with farmers on smart agriculture to maximize yield from same area of land. This will require smart work from all involved with food production from agro-dealers to government agents.
Organic farming will be piloted from field data analytics. This will also be applied to our livestock as animals within a flock will receive care including food and drugs based on individual specifications. Precision farming has become a reality
We hope the desk office in AfCFTA unit will set up a pan African custom market for central and unified certification of goods and services without willfully undermining the uniqueness of individual sovereign nation's.
As African continental free trade agreement AfCFTA comes into force soon we shall continue to support farmers and commodity groups with capacity building to take advantage of the protocol.
Ensuring food safety especially minimum residues of Organo phosphate, pesticides, herbicides will allow national regulatory agencies to certify our produce for continental markets.
Farm gate food safety protocol is central to protection of consumers. Farmers schools should include basic principles of food safety as part of marketing plan.
