Abstract | The HortiNigeria newsletter highlights several key initiatives and events aimed at advancing sustainable horticulture practices in Nigeria. These include the Farmer Field Day, which fostered knowledge exchange and community building among smallholder farmers, and the Learning Event in Kano State, which emphasized stakeholder collaboration for sector transformation. Additionally, the Financial Linkage Workshop focused on strengthening financial ties between business champions and financial service providers, while a multi-stakeholder roundtable addressed labor shortages in South Nigeria. The newsletter also covers efforts to empower farmers through digital technology, such as the FeSeRWAM platform for agro-input information, and showcases innovative solutions like the charcoal zero energy cooling chamber (ZECC). Success stories, such as Opeyemi Wasiu’s agricultural journey, and initiatives like CropLife International’s visit further underscore HortiNigeria's commitment to fostering resilient and sustainable agricultural practices. The launch of the HortiPrice Index also highlights the program’s dedication to providing stakeholders with crucial market data for informed decision-making. | |
