Less than five months ago, Harambe Nigeria launched ‘The Farmland’ website as the number-one information resource point for all things youth and agriculture.

Harambe Nigeria is an emerging youth-led organisation which seeks to revolutionise the way Nigerian youths engage with agriculture. One of its programs, the Harambe Incubator for Sustainable Agricultural and Rural Development (HISARD) trains young university students in Nigeria, equipping them with the skills they need to grow and sustain viable agricultural businesses upon graduation. In addition, Harambe Nigeria engages Nigerian youths through conferences, excursions and other networking events.

Over the past few months, through the Farmland, Harambe Nigeria brought the unfolding agricultural revolution to the doorsteps and computers of young and old Nigerians, by providing the latest agricultural news, sharing trends and important statistics in the field, featuring young emerging entrepreneurs, sharing information about various opportunities and much more. And now…The Farmland has been selected as one of the top youth and agricultural websites on the African continent and the West African subcontinent!
