Africa, especially Nigeria, stands at the forefront of global yam production, delivering an impressive 70 million tons annually, which represents nearly 90% of the world’s yam crop. However, this success story faces a challenge—the global demand for yam outpaces production, with the world’s appetite reaching approximately 100 million metric tons annually while production barely achieves 80 million metric tons.

Agbeyewa’s mission is to bridge this gap in yam production, empowering farmers and seller communities with access to premium-quality tubers, comprehensive training, and equitable market opportunities. We recognize that yam transcends being a mere crop; it holds profound cultural significance across Africa and serves as a vital contributor to global food security.

At Agbeyewa, we are not just cultivating yam; we are nurturing a legacy. By employing innovative techniques and fostering collaborative partnerships with farmers, we are unwavering in our commitment to bolster yam production, elevate post-harvest practices, and safeguard yam as a symbol of tradition and progress throughout the African continent.
