Rice Value Chain Initiative – Benue / Kwara States 2005 -10
Background: Olam Nigeria Limited, in 2005 decided to test a new businessapproach by investing in local production of high quality rice for Nigeria’sdomestic market. Olam began processing locally produced rice from agovernment leased mill located in Makurdi, Benue State. However, Olamwas faced with the challenge of insufficient supply of high quality ricepaddy to meet its factory production level. In the same year Olamcommenced a farming program in association with the farmer groups,USAID MARKETS, and Benue State Government to cater to the paddyrequirement of the mill. The goal of this partnership was to promotedemand-driven production by developing a supply chain model thatencouraged the use of improved technologies, farmer capacity building,commercial linkages to credible market outlets (the mill, etc.) andstrategic public-private partnerships.

Achievements of the Initiative over 5 years- 1,000 Ha to 11000 Ha- 1,000 farmers to 9000- Avge Yield per Ha for farmers to 4.25 MT / Ha from 1.25 MT avge
for the country.- Net income from US $ 385 to US$ 900/ Ha for the farmers- 40 % high quality Paddy sourced for the Mill through outgrowers- Started with 15000 MT capacity mill in Benue State, later
expanded to30,000MT.- From an average quality to good quality rice for the domestic
markets.- A complete value chain model through partnership build up

Challenges Faced:
• Scaling up beyond a level• Non payment of loans• Diversion of paddy • Not able to collect the volume to fill up the mill capacity • Buying from local market to fill up the capacity – heterogeneous low
quality paddy• Inconsistent policies• Cross border trade
And the model became unviable………

An inclusive model that combines large-scale commercial farming with small holders brings
benefits all around
This is a model that can be replicated to support domestic efforts for greater self-sufficiency
