The project will among other things, establish 632 privately-owned primary production support service centers, train about 100,000 new extension agents, and establish 142 privately owned agro-processing service centers to cater to farmer’s needs.
I want to congratulate the African Development Bank, the International Fund for Agricultural Development, the Forum for Agricultural Research in Africa and the CGIAR System Organization for hosting a successful event.
To ensure agricultural transformation in Nigeria, we have developed the following initiatives: The Economic Sustainability Plan, The National Livestock Transformation Plan, and The Green Imperative Project among others.
