Nigeria’s Minister of Agriculture and Food Security, Senator Abubakar Kyari, is driving significant growth in the country’s agricultural sector. His recent trip to Egypt was a major success, particularly the Egypt-Nigeria Business Forum held in Cairo on January 18, 2025. There, he met with Egypt’s Minister of Agriculture to strengthen agricultural ties and tackle shared challenges like rapid population growth, food insecurity, and climate change .

This collaboration is a key part of Nigeria’s Renewed Hope Agenda, which focuses on sustainable development, economic transformation, and innovation. To achieve this, Senator Kyari visited Egypt’s Agricultural Research Center and Agricultural Bank of Egypt, aiming to foster collaboration and drive agricultural transformation through research, innovation, and technological advancements.

The visit yielded significant insights, including the potential for collaboration on crop variety improvement. This is crucial for Nigeria’s agricultural development, as it will enable the country to develop crop varieties suited to its unique climatic conditions.

The minister’s efforts align with his commitment to empowering farmers and boosting food security in Nigeria. He has outlined five major initiatives to achieve this goal, including research efforts that have led to the development of 23 new agricultural technologies .

Overall, the agricultural boss leadership is poised to transform Nigeria’s agricultural sector, driving growth, innovation, and sustainability.

Another key takeaway was the importance of Farmers’ Database and Identity Cards. The Agricultural Bank of Egypt has successfully implemented a system for maintaining a robust farmers’ database and issuing identity cards, which streamline farmers’ access to inputs, loans, and subsidies. Nigeria is building on a similar model, with the Ministry of Agriculture partnering with the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) to issue Government-to-Person (G2P) cards for farmers, ensuring transparency and accountability in service delivery.

The Coalition of Civil Society Organizations has hailed Minister Kyari’s efforts, recognizing the significant impact of his initiatives on Nigeria’s agricultural development. As the country continues to strive for food security and sustainable agricultural growth, Minister Kyari’s leadership and vision are crucial in driving progress and transformation in the sector.

The Nigeria-Egypt agricultural partnership will focus on four key areas:

1. Crop Variety Development: Joint research initiatives will be established to develop crop varieties suited to the unique climatic conditions of both nations

2. Farmers’ Support Systems: Nigeria will leverage insights from Egypt to enhance its farmers’ database and identity card system, streamlining access to inputs, loans, and subsidies.

3. Technological Collaboration: Both nations will exchange knowledge and expertise to develop innovative solutions that drive sustainable agricultural growth.

4. Capacity Building: Training platforms will be established to facilitate mutual learning for researchers and farmers in both countries.

The Nigeria-Egypt agricultural partnership marks a significant milestone in the quest for sustainable agricultural development in both nations. As the two countries embark on this collaborative journey, they are poised to unlock new opportunities for growth, innovation, and prosperity in the agricultural sector
