A non-governmental organisation, One Acre Fund Nigeria, has flagged off its 2026 input delivery programme for 88,000 smallholder farmers across Nasarawa, Niger, Kwara and Plateau states.
Our correspondent reports that One Acre Fund is a social enterprise that supports smallholder farmers by providing access to quality agricultural inputs, financing, training and farmer-focused services designed to improve productivity and strengthen rural livelihoods.
Speaking at the flag-off ceremony in Abioga community, Obi Local Government Area of Nasarawa State on Friday, the Trees Lead for One Acre Fund Nigeria, Zainab Haruna, noted that the gesture was to help beneficiaries boost their yields during the rainy season farming period.
She noted that the benefiting farmers are those who had enrolled in the organisation’s credit programme for the 2026 season, which gave them access to inputs including bags of fertiliser, seeds, and protective equipment such as masks and gloves.
