The Essence of NIRSAL Loan Application 2020

Nirsal loan exercise aims at creating 16,000 Agro Geo-Cooperatives (ranging from 10 hectares to 20,001 hectares and above) on 4 million hectares of farmland and enrolling about 8 million farmers across Nigeria who are expected to produce about 12 million metric tonnes of Grain Product Equivalent (GPE) annually over the medium to long term.

The NIRSAL Agro Geo-Cooperative® IAGC) model recognizes that it is the land that makes the farmer; hence, No land No farmer! Accordingly, the model groups farmers based on the contiguity of their farmlands, with each farmer retaining what is originally theirs and becoming partakers in large, structured farming projects. The bigger and more contiguous an Agricultural Geo Cooperative is, the faster and easier for it to have access to structured finance, quality inputs, and structured markets through NIRSAL Loan application.
