25 Danish Agric. Companies Indicate Interest In Nigeria by mrmetoo1: 5:21pm On Mar 14, 2016 |
The Danish Agriculture and Food Council’s Senior Advisor, Ms Susanne Teilmann, on Monday announced the readiness of 25 Danish companies to invest in the development of Nigeria’s agricultural sector. Teilmann told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos that the companies had indicated interest in taking advantage of the Nigeria’s huge agricultural potential and share their farming experiences with Nigerian farmers. ``My Council is in Nigeria to make presentations to the Nigerian Federal Ministry of Agriculture on what we have learnt on how Nigeria’s agriculture sector can become better. ``My Council is very ready to share our agricultural development experience with Nigerians. We are ready to share all our experiences with Nigeria. ``Already, about 25 Danish agricultural development companies have indicated their interest in coming to Nigeria to do business, as well as share their experiences with Nigerians. ``Nigeria is where things can happen and this is where we want to be,’’ she said. Teilmann, however, said that the companies were ready to partner with ``the right” partners in Nigeria in developing and harnessing Nigeria’s agriculture potential. The Council’s Advisor expressed optimism that Nigeria’s agriculture sector, if well-developed, had the possibility of making Nigeria a ``food hub” in West Africa. Teilmann urged Nigerian governments to urgently begin to encourage professionalism in the development of her agriculture. The Advisor also enjoined the Nigerian governments to encourage and create the right environment for the involvement of young Nigerians in professional farming. ``Nigeria has the great potential of being the huge food hub for the whole of the West African region if her agricultural potential are adequately harnessed. ``We need to encourage professionalism in agriculture. We need to have schools for the training of young professional Nigerians in different areas of farming processes,’’ she added.

With this economic downturn many people are going to get out poverty simply because they're smart and they know in the midst of all these, there are immense opportunities. There'll be some other people that remain in poverty because some politicians have told them there's no hope because their rival is a bad man. Unfortunately what these politicians won't tell this poor folks is that even they are making a killing from the opportunities that abound in this country. 7 Likes 3 Shares |

FG should make sure they can only come in through partnership with local farmers, enforce employment of Nigerians and lease of the land from FG. This will transfer knowledge, provide employment and FG will benefit from the renewal of the lease plus taxes. 3 in 1 |
