There is clearly a need to alter the current age of farmers in Nigeria and to hold out agriculture as useful, rewarding and attainable vocation for young people which is the main objective of yesaa, to bring the youths closer to agriculture and to train young people in agribusiness as opposed to an under rewarding vocation but with a lot of opportunity within the agricultural value chain.

yesaa youth entrepreneurship scheme for agribusiness advancement is having a 3 day training and participants stand a chance of winning up to 500k start up funds. yesaa is endorsed by IITA, NAFDAC, NABG, FMARD FMITI
