The Katsina State Government under the leaderahip of Governor @dikko_radda takes a momentous stride towards transforming into an economic powerhouse as it officially seals the Katsina State Market Systems Development Agreement. This forward-thinking endeavor will be executed by the Katsina State Development Management Board, led by the Executive Secretary @bilkisusibrahim, in collaboration with @Toronet and @LogistixOne Nigeria Ltd.
A memorandum of understanding (MOU) has been signed to establish a Digital Agriculture eWallet Platform, aimed at fostering economic and sustainable growth in the agricultural sector, with a particular focus on small holder farmers cultivating maize, soya, and millet. This groundbreaking initiative seeks to empower farmers, spur economic progress, and ensure the long-term development of Katsina.
The comprehensive nature of this innovative initiative encompasses various components, including the registration, validation, and management system for farmer profiles, the establishment of a market linkage system, the facilitation of market-making or match-making processes, and the implementation of a value addition system.
