DAYLONG GROUP MOVES TO TACKLE FRAGMENTATION IN AGRICULTURAL SUPPLY CHAIN

Daylong Group has announced plans aimed at addressing the fragmentation within Nigeria’s agricultural supply chain, with a focus on improving efficiency and reducing post-harvest losses.

The company said the current structure of the sector remains highly disjointed, with multiple intermediaries contributing to inefficiencies and increased costs for both farmers and consumers.

According to the group, its initiative will focus on strengthening coordination between producers, processors, logistics providers, and market operators.

It noted that improving integration across the value chain would help enhance food security, stabilize prices, and increase farmers’ incomes.

The company also emphasized the role of technology in improving traceability, distribution, and access to markets for agricultural produce.

Stakeholders in the sector have long called for reforms to address infrastructural gaps, poor storage systems, and limited access to financing for farmers.

Industry analysts say better coordination within the supply chain could unlock significant value and attract more investment into Nigeria’s agriculture sector.

Daylong Group reaffirmed its commitment to supporting sustainable agricultural development and boosting productivity across the value chain.
