From Odusina Adewale Hiworks
Unconfirmed report has it that our nation non-oil commodities export trade volume yearly stands at 5billion dollars and Government has a long term (of over 20years) target of trade in the region of 100billion dollars. Our nation targets 20billion dollars in the short term.
If in the next 2 years, 1 million fresh players in the export business can explore opportunities for trade accross Africa and the world to the tune of 20,000 dollars yearly, we can achieve the milestone probably before the next 5 years.
Government can attract additional 1 million every 2years until 10,000,000 farmers are engaged and additional 10,000,000 along the preservation, processing and export trade chain, we may have a very early celebration of the 100billion dollar benchmark.
Government have a vital role in these regards to create the enabling environment; single digit long term loan, alternative power supply product with 30years playback time, free consulting, urbanisation of villages and towns, road worthiness to farms and villages, preservation and processing farm plants, ease of exportation logistics etc
Our research and development must be empowered to engage millions and inspired to bring out new product that will take the world by surprise like indomie and position such on every African family table and the world.
Our educational system must be adjusted deliberately to Cavour our cause. Also, our banking system must attract investment in agriculture.
