AMERICAN OFF-TAKER SIGNS MOU WITH NIGERIA MUSHROOM PRODUCERS

Posted on October 5, 2022 By Emmanuel William 3 Comments on AMERICAN OFF-TAKER SIGNS MOU WITH NIGERIA MUSHROOM PRODUCERS

Producers of Mushroom in Nigeria have signed a memorandum of understanding with American off-takers for the exportation of over forth billion dollars worth of annual shortfall of Mushroom product to America. 

The agreement was signed in Abuja by the Mushroom producers under the aegis of Grassroots Agricultural Cooperative Society Ltd with Mbeng Adio Mushroom Farms Global LCC Delaware, USA, in Abuja, during a training session on Mushroom production. 

While signing the MOU, the president of the grassroots cooperative society of Nigeria, Mr. Victor Olusan, said five hundred thousand Mushroom croppers are to be raised to be producing about six hundred thousand kilograms of Mushroom daily as part of the deal.

Bridget Mbeng, the President of the MAMF group who is from Cameroon, said the funding of the project is from Banks in the united states of America who only provide such support based on the capacity of partners on the project. 

The facilitator of the scheme with headquarters in the states of Delaware, USA, Dr. Kingsley Obasohan said globally, the Mushroom sub-sector boasts of over sixty billion dollars annually which Nigerian farmers should take advantage of. 

“There are over eight thousand mushroom farmers in Nigeria. We are going into cropping mushrooms in 30 states of the federation. Our members are there waiting.

“We want to change the paradigm instead of looking for people to buy and sell at very ridiculous and terrible prices. We need to change the ball game. We have been working for the past three years now, one of it now is the partnership we are having with the US today.

“With this arrangement, before the mushroom grower produces, he will know exactly how much he is producing and how much will be available to the buyer,” Olusan said

“This measure or effort will eliminate waste, eliminate time lag, eliminate so much and, in the long run, pave the way for higher productivity,” Olusan said.
