The Nigeria Agricultural Commodity Standards Grading Policy is a transformative framework aimed at revolutionizing agribusiness in Nigeria. Spearheaded by the Nigeria Agribusiness Group (NABG) and supported by key stakeholders, this policy seeks to standardize, grade, and regulate agricultural commodities for local and international markets.

The policy addresses challenges like commodity rejection in global markets, price volatility, and inefficiencies in the trading system. It introduces a grading system that ensures transparency, fairness, and quality assurance, benefiting farmers, traders, and consumers alike. By aligning with international standards, the policy enhances Nigeria’s competitiveness under the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).

Key features include:

• Categorization of agricultural products into distinct grades.
• Improved price discovery mechanisms.
• Support for sustainable farming and predictable market systems.
• Facilitation of global acceptance for Nigerian produce.

Explore how this groundbreaking initiative empowers stakeholders, fosters economic growth, and positions Nigeria as a leader in the global agricultural market.
