As the world leans towards organic, home-grown food production, nations such as Nigeria are at the forefront of a farming revolution. Agriculture technology (AgTech) is playing a big role in transforming how farming is done, particularly in countries where farming is a major part of the economy. Let’s dive into the story of one such AgTech startup, Megas Agriculture, and how they are spearheading the transformation of Nigeria’s farm-to-market model.
Based in Jos, Plateau, Nigeria, Megas Agriculture has been disrupting the agricultural sector since its establishment in 2018. Founded by Samuel Dada and Adebayo Michael, their approach to revolutionizing the agriculture industry involves a use of technological innovation and creative marketplace strategies.
What makes Megas Agriculture stand out? Firstly, its combination of marketplace SaaS and a mobile app breaks down the barriers of distribution within the agric sector. Therefore, farmers are directly linked to buyers, minimizing the need for middlemen and reducing the cost of food products. Secondly, by focusing merely on facilitating access and distribution within the agriculture sector, they manage to make this process not only seamless but also efficient.
The other differential is the major emphasis on technology. AgTech has been revolutionary in addressing several issues within the agriculture industry globally. Megas Agriculture aims to be the pioneering force in Nigeria’s AgTech, establishing a comprehensive framework that addresses gaps between farmers and the market and utilizing technology to improve farming practices and ease of business for farmers.
Looking forward, the future of Megas Agriculture is geared towards continual improvements and venturing into more innovative avenues. By persistently addressing gaps within their sector, they are playing a pivotal role in transforming agriculture business in Nigeria. With more and more startups paying attention to the agriculture industry, Megas is setting a precedent for using technology to drive change.
