Farming Experts Network
Description/achievement of initiative

Farming Experts Network provides leadership and support for programs that advance agriculture-related sciences. We invest in and support initiatives that ensure the long-term viability of agriculture. FEN applies an integrated approach to ensure that groundbreaking discoveries in agriculture-related sciences and technologies reach the people who can put them into practice.

Implementation methodologies

Through Training, awareness, and research on the latest Farming System

Arrangements for Capacity-Building and Technology Transfer

The Smart Agri Risk Management Desk, which will initially run for a period of two years under the auspices of Farming Experts Network, will conduct research and serve as a platform to identify and address the entire risk profile of agriculture in Nigeria. The project will entail dedicated, in-depth, relevant and immediately applicable research that will lead to tangible assistance in ensuring that risk can be identified and measures can be taken well in advance of any risk alert. Research emanating from this project will therefore aim to: • Ensure permanent protection or reduction of the intensity of any risk events; • Minimize the severity of consequences of risks
