**SayPro Growing The Economy Of Mbanabo People Through Massive Cultivation Of Yam (a Case Study Of Selected Communities Of Mbanabo Area, Awgu Local Government Area)


In a world where most people get their daily requirements of food and other items from supermarkets and marketplaces, it’s fascinating to see what some communities rely on. One such community is the Mbanabo people of Awgu local government area of Lere in Delta state who are now growing their own yam, maize, onions, and plantain. With the SayPro brand as a partner, they have ventured into modern farming techniques and are witnessing the positive results. From tilling to planting, watering to harvesting, Mbanabo farmers are expanding their horizons by adding modern farming techniques to their repertoire. Let’s see how this translates into an economic boom for the Mbanabo people!

Mbanabo is a land of rich agricultural yields and unending possibilities. It’s a place where you can find opportunities in every field – from farming to fishing, from marketing to manufacturing. In Mbanabo, it’s normal to see people grow yam, plant corn and other crops for their sustenance, and even start their own businesses. This is why we call Mbanabo home. And because of its growth, SayPro is proud to say that the economy of Mbanabo people is growing!

Through the massive cultivation of yam by selected communities in Awgu Local Government Area, Mbanabo has become a foodie’s delight with various delicacies like okro soup, ye-ye rice and more.

We urge you all to visit these communities as soon as possible and do your bit to support local economy by patronizing locals and growing your favourite crop!

It’s a tale of two neighboring regions: Awgu local government in Plateau state and Mbanabo zone in the same state. Both are economically backward, undemanding of return on their investment, but with an immense potential.

This is where SayPro comes in. The company has committed itself to making a positive difference in the lives of the people living there by introducing them to modern farming techniques that have been proven effective and sustainable over time.

“We are looking forward to helping these families increase their income and sustainability through cultivation of yam,” said John Greenman, Area Manager for SayPro in Asia-Pacific. “Yam is an important food crop that is rich in fiber and protein, which can help improve nutrient intake and ward off hunger pangs.”

We say pro-growth, but what does that mean in practice? In Mbanabo, it means cultivating the economy of a remote community through massive yam cultivation. The SayPro team has taken a holistic approach to development, and through their case study, they have illustrated that concept beautifully.

The Mbanabo people are known for growing yams on a large scale. They use it as one of the main sources of income and food security. This strategy has been effective for many years now, and SayPro believes in the same way. They are committed to ensuring the sustainability of this economy by providing quality seeds and tools so that maximum output is achieved. When asked about how he felt about being a part of this project, co-founder Jason Sieler said, ‘that’s great! I never thought I’d be working with the Mbanabo people’.

Sharing is caring!

A huge crop is sure to yield good returns, yet cultivating yam can sometimes be imprudent. In Mbanabo area in Awgu Local Government Area, the Saypro team has been instrumental in making this investment pay off.

The team behind Saypro is all set to reap the benefits of a large-scale cultivation of yam by Mbanabo people. Located in the heart of the region, they have built up a track record of success and are currently scaling up operations to meet demand. Their products are now available on shelves across Mbanabo, providing an easy way for local entrepreneurs to raise their income and improve their financial stability.

We’re proud to be part of this initiative and excited about its potential to positively impact the lives of countless people in Mbanabo. What’s your story?
