The Nigeria country measure contributes to the module objective of the AgSys programe in strenghtening transformation processes, particularly through institutional innovations, and fostering sustainable agricultural systems with a special focus on food and nutrition security and climate change mitigation. Institutional innovations include multi-stakeholder platforms and new ways of representing interests at national forums. The AgSys country measure Nigeria is relying on around 20 tried and tested innovations from previous projects at micro and meso level with strong ownership by the Nigerian partners. On the one hand, these innovations are aiming to improve training and advisory approaches and contents like Good Agricultural Practices (GAP), Farmer Business Schools (FBS) or contract farming (CF). On the other hand, input related, technological innovations but also organisational innovations have been developed. In the framework of the project Green Innovation Centers for the Agriculture and Food Sector (GIC), 4 Multi-Actor platforms (MAP) in the value chains (VC) potato, rice, maize and cassava have been promoted and strengthened as bottom-up platforms for testing and disseminating innovations. The MAP are particularly relevant for shaping the political and regulatory framework conditions for agricultural stakeholders. Among other things, the MAP developed the national potato strategy, which was published in 2023 and can serve as a model for other VC. The target groups for this assignment are therefore the actors in the MAP that are representing the VC segments (input providers, farmers, processors, marketers. Indirect target groups are the policymakers that will be addressed through advocacy action as well as the VC actors that shall benefit from the services and policy reforms aimed by the MAP.
