Our journey into the agriculture sector, as a group can be traced back to 1978, with the acquisition of a 10,000-hectare farm in Kaboji, Niger state. Since then, we have continued to make substantial investments in several other farms, and downstream activities to support our 5 key value chains of Grains; oils & Fats; Sugar; Feeds & Proteins, and Cassava Starches.
This is our model 10,000 hectares' farm in Niger State. Our objectives at the farm include primarily producing maize and soy bean using quality inputs, world class management practices and showcasing the potential of commercial agriculture. With the support of our out-grower schemes, the model farm supplies our feed, edible oil and food value chains with much needed raw materials.
We have invested up to N15billion in the companies supporting this value chain. These companies have the combined capacity of employing about 2,000 direct workers with an additional 10,000 indirect workers. Potentially, we hope to be able to save up to USD$180million foreign exchange in through our localization effort.
