About Youth Farmers Cooperative
We are a leading agricultural cooperative driving sustainable development and economic empowerment across Nigeria through innovative farming solutions and community engagement.
Our Story
Founded in 2022, Youth Farmers Cooperative emerged from a vision to transform Nigeria's agricultural landscape by empowering young people and women with modern farming techniques, access to resources, and market opportunities.
What started as a small initiative in Gombe State has grown into a regional force, impacting thousands of farmers across six states in North Eastern Nigeria. Our cooperative model ensures that benefits reach the grassroots while maintaining sustainable operations.
Today, we stand as a testament to what's possible when innovation meets agriculture, and when communities come together for collective growth and development.
