The conversation followed the distraction in the agricultural industry, occasioned by COVID-19 outbreak, thus triggering market contraction.
 
The discussion, which will be held virtually in collaboration with Project Capital+, sought to explore alternative ways in funding the Agric sector and make it attractive to local and foreign investors.
Organisers of the programme noted that a discussion of this kind was apt at this period to be able to drive the diversification plans of the federal government as oil prices continued to plunge.
The discussion which is centred on the theme, “Attracting Finance to Agricultural Sector Projects in times of Crisis”, will also examine the sector’s prospects, including export opportunities, as activities are expected to take shape post COVID-19.
