In think my own advice, is to look forward how to help the farmers here in Nigeria, bcos like me now, i’m into farming, but no strong capital to invest for farming. Try to find a way of how to promotes the farmers with a loans individually without associating ur programs with Nigerian government, bcos Nigerian government will never gives loans to those that deserved the loans, or the conditions of applying for the loan may be to higher to the farmers. I think that is the only way u can help to boost the agricultural system in Nigeria if u want to really help the farmers. Thank u!
