Fadhila Crop Science has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) to improve farmers’ access to finance and markets under the USAID’s Feed the Future Nigeria Integrated Agricultural Activity.
The MoU is fundamental in enhancing market entry and finance for smallholder farmers who dominate the Nigerian agriculture sector.
The partnership is set to accomplish increased production and access to quality seeds, market linkages, and to build the capacity of farmer groups, which is the major objective of the Feed the Future Nigeria Integrated Agriculture Activity’s Community-based seed Development initiative.
“You are not our beneficiaries, we do not see you as beneficiaries, we see you as our business partners providing us with a critical service,” said Naona Usoroh, Fadhila’s chief executive to the smallholder seed farmers at the signing of the MoU.
