Ask Atiku Abubakar — Official Citizen Engagement Platform

What will you do to help farmers improve their yields?

I will support you through targeted investment in farm inputs, mechanization, extension services, and market access, matching the right tools to the needs of different kinds of farmers. I will also put abandoned water dams across federal, state, and local levels back into use, so smallholder farmers can farm all year round. And I will work to develop the whole agricultural value chain, investing in aggregation centres, warehouses, and cold chain systems to cut post-harvest losses and boost productivity.
