GHAPP advocates agric financing, mechanisation in Nigeria 

The Greener Hope Large-scale Agriculture Mechanisation Programme (GHAPP) has stressed the need for agriculture financing and mechanisation in the country.

Dr. Musa Olasupo, Director of Programme of Greener Hope, extensively discussed the importance of access to finance in expanding mechanisation efforts.

He emphasised the Greener Hope Large-scale Agriculture Mechanisation Programme (GHAP’s) relentless commitment to empowering both small holders as well as large-scale farmers, enabling them to increase productivity and address food security challenges. ‘

’Agricultural mechanisation services require long-term financing options, and it must be made consistently over a period of time for us to attain the desired level of Mechanisation that can catalyse agricultural productivity in Nigeria.

“Government should be ready to do the heavy lifting and allow the private sector to complement her efforts. That is the logic guiding the Greener Hope Large Scale Mechanization Programme,” said Dr. Olasupo.

Greener Hope Large-scale Agriculture Mechanisation Programme (GHAPP) made a significant impact at the maiden edition of the FARMFATECH 2024 EXPO, a three-day event held at the Velodrome of the Moshood Abiola National Stadium in Abuja. 

The event gathered prominent stakeholders from the agricultural value-chain sector to discuss pressing issues in agricultural financing and the value chain across Nigeria and Africa.

FARMFATECH 2024 featured a rich line-up of thought leadership panels and exhibitions, showcasing advancements in agricultural technology, mechanisation, and financing solutions. Greener Hope actively participated in both discussions during the sessions as well as the exhibitions, highlighting its commitment to providing technology-driven mechanisation solutions to Nigerian farmers and the Agri-business value-chain.
