Across Nigeria, the story of agriculture is one of both promise and paradox. In fertile fields from Benue to Kano, smallholder farmers rise at dawn, till the soil, and harvest crops in volumes that should feed the nation. Yet markets often suffer scarcity, prices remain inflated, and supply is irregular. The paradox here remains that Nigeria produces, but much of that production never reaches the tables of those who need it most.
Nigeria’s agricultural dilemma becomes concerning. The issue is not only how much we produce, but how much value
