2016 IN REVIEW

Nigerian agriculture is an incredibly diverse sector and Nigeria is moving purposely towards becoming Africa’s greatest agricultural producer. The sector has been competing with the oil business as the main economic driver. Agriculture is however an undeniably complex and challenging environment to navigate for both existing and new market entrants.

The only meeting of its kind in Nigeria, Agra Innovate’s conference and exhibition has been built around a framework of unrehearsed and impassioned discussions amongst domestic and international leaders from all key agricultural value chains, national/state government, research bodies and investors.

During the conference delegates received privileged insights on the most exciting areas of opportunity and future development potential in the sector; the strategies and innovations that leading organisations are creating to exploit this potential and their frank analysis of the risks and potential constraints for existing and new market entrants.

Three days of debate and discussion was organised around the following key themes:

• VALUE CHAIN ANALYSIS

• POLICY AND REGULATION

• TECHNOLOGY REQUIREMENTS & OFFERINGS

• INVESTMENT/MARKET OPPORTUNITY & RISK

• PARTNERSHIP MODELS

• VALUE ADDITION & MARKET DEVELOPMENT
