Agriculture matters to
the future of development

Adding organic matter in the form of compost and aged manure, or using mulch or growing cover crops (green manures), is the best way to prepare soil for planting.

we assist in various ways including enhanced bargaining power, access to better farming technologies, improved access to credit, and increased knowledge sharing.

The focus ist only on galvaning people into agriculture, but we are even more concern about you staying and coming out of poverty through farming, this includes civil servants in Ministries, Departments and Agencies [MDAs] Local Government Area Councils, and private Sector, and individuals who would want to take farming seriously.
