The Insight to Rice Farming
Annually, Nigerians consume around 5.5 million tonnes of rice, of which 3.6 million tonnes are locally produced – mostly by farmers for personal consumption. Currently, we spend roughly ₦365bn per year importing the remaining 1.9 million tonnes, because local production is unable to satisfy the huge demand for rice in Nigeria. This figure also makes Nigeria the world’s largest importer of rice. So there is a genuine demand, and genuine opportunities for entrepreneurs and businesses in Nigeria.
Considering the fact that Nigeria has a huge market for rice, youths have the chance to invest in the farming, processing, and sale of rice. One can equip business to cultivate and harvest rice, construct rice mills for milling and processing, or working within wholesale distribution. The avenues and opportunities are endless.
