Some people talk about transforming Nigerian agriculture. And then there is Oluyemisi Iranloye, Founder & CEO of Psaltry International.

She saw what many people overlooked: that cassava, one of Nigeria's most important crops, could be much more than a raw commodity. So, she built a business around creating more value from it.

She pioneered Africa's first cassava-based sorbitol factory, overcoming challenges from COVID-19 delays to port congestion.

Tomorrow, we get to hear the story behind the title.
Yemisi joins us on Beyond the Farm to talk about building in agriculture, creating value beyond production, and what it really takes to turn an opportunity into an industry.

Last week was a reminder that the work of transforming agriculture goes beyond financing.

From engagements with federal ministries to conversations around social inclusion and gender-focused financing, last week was about bringing the right people and ideas to the table and moving conversations into action.

At the heart of it is a simple commitment: to make finance work better for the people and businesses driving agriculture forward.

Here's a recap of MD's engagements over the week. The work continues.

What happens after the harvest?

For millions of farmers, that question can determine whether an entire season's work yields a profit or a loss.

On Channels Television, our MD/CEO, Ayo Sotinrin, discussed the Guaranteed Minimum Price (GMP) Programme and why it changes the game for the Nigerian farmer.


✅ Guaranteed floor price for maize, rice, cassava & sorghum
✅ 500,000+ smallholder farmers paid directly and digitally
✅ 1M+ metric tonnes across all 36 states + FCT
✅ A bank account for every farmer, many for the first time

The conversation explores why price certainty matters, how aggregation strengthens the value chain, and why the journey from farm to market is just as important as the planting season itself.

One question we hear often is this: Do I have to be a farmer to succeed in agriculture? The answer is no.

Agriculture extends far beyond the farm.
Opportunities exist in technology, finance, logistics, processing, marketing, trade, and so much more.

This International Youth Day, the Bank of Agriculture is bringing together young agripreneurs who are building innovative businesses and creating value across the agricultural ecosystem.

Whether you are a student, entrepreneur, creative professional, investor, or someone looking to explore opportunities within the sector, this conversation is for you.

"I am sure that this season's farming will be far better because the support is finally matching my effort." - Yahuza Magaji.

For a long time, farming for Yahuza meant working hard and hoping that the soil would return the favour.
This season feels different. Through the Renewed Hope Smallholder Support and Value Chain Programme, Yahuza increased his input from six bags of fertiliser per hectare to eight.

Behind every input is a farmer, a family and a community's food supply. We are proud to stand with farmers like Yahuza as they turn hard work into a more promising harvest.
