The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and the National Agricultural Land Development Authority (NALDA) are collaborating to provide land and credit to farmers, aiming to boost the agricultural sector. The inauguration of a NALDA farm estate in Daura, Katsina State, which can generate over N1.7bn annually, marks a significant step towards an agricultural revolution in the state. The CBN is exploring affordable financing options for beneficiaries of the agricultural scheme to increase productivity. The farm estate, spread over 100 hectares, is designed for crop and animal production, with facilities for poultry, fish, cow, goat, rabbit, bee-keeping, and crop processing. It also includes a school, clinic, and residential area, creating opportunities for 1,500 women and youth. This initiative is part of the CBN's efforts to stimulate economic growth, diversify the economy, and support smallholder farmers through the Anchor Borrowers' Programme and other schemes.
