Synopsis

This book presents a 4-chapter policy blueprint for resolving Nigeria's systemic crises using agriculture. Chapter 1 exposes how banditry is systematically destroying food security in Niger North. Kidnappings and illegal taxes displace farmers, causing production halts and severe inflation. It urges root-cause security policies to save the food system. Chapter 2 finds government-led youth agriculture programs fail due to deep-seated corruption, poor targeting mechanism, and weak implementation, hindering the fight against youth unemployment. It calls for governance reform. Chapter 3 emphasizes repositioning Agricultural Education through modernizing curricula with ICT and entrepreneurship is deemed vital for boosting social cohesion and national productivity. Chapter 4 addresses climate change, noting soil conservation as a dual strategy for mitigation and adaptation. It details how practices like conservation tillage and agroforestry help farmers adapt to severe weather, stabilizing yields and improving livelihoods. The primary beneficiaries of this work are Policymakers, farmers in conflict zones, unemployed youth, agricultural educators, and the entire Nigerian economy.
