AgroEknor Aims to Drive Farmer Productivity in Benue through Accessible Agricultural Inputs

 
 
AgroEknor has entered into a five-year, 150 million naira partnership with 10,000 smallholder farmers in Benue state to scale the production and agroprocessing of key exportable agricultural products in the state.

This initiative from AgroEknor underscores its commitment to enhance smallholder farmer productivity by providing agricultural inputs and impact-driven inclusion strategies with high-impact potential.
 
The AgroEknor’s Executive Director of Partnerships, Attah Anzaku, said “This partnership enables AgroEknor to bring our experience, capital and technical expertise to Benue State as we drive agricultural productivity while reducing food waste in line with our mission to build the largest network of profitable farmers  in Benue state; the food basket of the nation as we accelerate a country that feeds itself and also generates agricultural export income.”
 
Over the past ten years, AgroEknor has empowered 20,000 farmers while producing and processing over 15,000 tons of agricultural product through the FEEP initiative.
 
In order to reach some of the most isolated farmers in Benue state, AgroEknor works with more than 300 Field Partners, including 20+ co-operatives and NGOs as we gather  and transfer knowledge, as well as the distribution of fertilizers, pesticides, solar kits and mobile phones to support Benue state farmers to optimise their cultivation efforts.
