Across Nigeria, the story of farming is changing, farmers are no longer just cultivating crops; they are building thriving businesses. At Babban Gona, we see every farmer as a potential entrepreneur, capable of turning hard work on the field into a sustainable enterprise that changes lives and strengthens communities.
Our model is built around that belief. By providing access to quality inputs, hands-on training, financing, and guaranteed markets, we give farmers more than just tools; we give them the confidence to grow, lead, and build wealth. Every Trust Group becomes a hub of innovation and learning, where members see farming not just as a way to survive but as a business to scale.
As farmers begin to apply better agronomic practices and business principles, something remarkable happens: yields rise, profits increase, and opportunities multiply. They move from simply working their land to managing it strategically, reinvesting earnings, and even mentoring others.
Take Kamisu Sulaiman, for example.“Before Babban Gona, my farm was small, and my yields were even smaller,” he shared. “But with the support and training I received, I built a new house, enrolled my children in school, and now lead several Trust Groups, helping other farmers grow too.”
Or Yushau Gambo, who used to struggle to make ends meet. After joining Babban Gona, his story changed. “I now harvest 60 bags per hectare, three times what I used to get. Today, I employ others in my community and provide a stable life for my family.”
These are just two of thousands of stories proving that with the right support, farmers can evolve into business owners and community leaders. The transformation goes beyond harvest numbers. it is about empowerment, confidence, and long-term prosperity.
Every planting season, more members of the Babban Gona network take this journey, from farm to enterprise, from farmer to entrepreneur. And together, they’re redefining the future of agriculture in Nigeria — one field, one business, and one success story at a time.
