•Early Access to Quality Inputs, Training, and Support for Farmers
Timing is crucial in agriculture, as are quality inputs, mechanization, security, value addition to prevent post-harvest loss, and market linkage. To help farmers start early and achieve a successful season, the Kwara State Government is organizing the 2025 Kwara ADP Agro Input Fair—a platform designed to provide farmers with everything they need for a productive year.
This initiative of His Excellency, Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, reinforces the state’s commitment to food security, agricultural development, and economic empowerment by ensuring that farmers have access to high-quality inputs at affordable prices, along with essential support services in preparation for the planting season.
The event will take place from February 24th to 28th, 2025, at the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, Ilorin, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM daily.
