Agriculture remains the backbone of Nigeria’s economy, employing over 70% of the rural population and contributing significantly to GDP. Yet, with limited mechanization, infrastructure gaps, and underfunding, the sector holds vast untapped potential.

DAI’s Agriculture & Agro-processing Initiative aims to transform these challenges into bankable opportunities for diaspora investors. We facilitate access to a pipeline of high-growth agribusinesses, cooperatives, agro-tech startups, and value chain projects that align with global investment standards.

Why Invest in Agriculture?

• Over 84 million hectares of arable land – under 50% currently cultivated
• High demand for local food processing to reduce import dependence
• Export opportunities through AfCFTA and global food markets
• Growing youth population ready for agro-entrepreneurship
• Government incentives, land access, and agro-industrial zones

DAI connects you with vetted projects in areas like cassava processing, rice milling, shea butter production, aquaculture, and agritech platforms enabling precision farming, drone monitoring, and logistics. Our team ensures due diligence, feasibility checks, and impact tracking to help you invest with confidence and purpose.

Whether you are a diaspora investor, cooperative, or development partner, you have the power to transform lives, increase food security, and build lasting wealth—while contributing to Nigeria’s global agricultural competitiveness.
