About Nigeria
The next pandemic? Hunger.
Africa’s food and nutrient security is in a dire state. Agricultural productivity is low and countries are importing basic food items that can be grown locally
To avoid food shortages over the next decade, farmers would need to aggressively scale food production to meet the region’s growing population. This can be achieved through strong partnerships focused on research, accumulation of capacity and access to credit.
This approach spurs further innovation and investments in food value chains, thus improving output and reducing postharvest losses
