The Kwara State Government is looking for investors to establish and operate a facility for the production of livestock feed.
Investment opportunity
The project will involve the planning, construction and operation of a sustainable livestock feed factory. The raw materials for the project include maize, soya beans, groundnuts and sugar cane – all of which are cultivated in the state.
Agriculture is Kwara State's most important sector and the majority of the population is directly or indirectly involved in farming activities. The state, situated in central Nigeria, is part of the fertile 'middle belt' that cuts across the country.
