Vice President Kashim Shettima presided over the launch of the distribution of 515,720 bags of urea and NPK fertilizers in Abuja. The initiative operates under the National Agricultural Development Fund Renewed Hope Farm Input Support Programme.

The high-volume input allocation targets 128,930 registered smallholder farmers who cultivate less than 0.5 hectares of land across twenty-five states and the Federal Capital Territory. Represented by the Minister of State for Agriculture, Aliyu Sabi Abdullahi, the Vice President explained that relieving input costs remains a central pillar of the administration's plan to bring down domestic commodity food prices.

The executive brief emphasized that monitoring teams will enforce transparent distribution routines to prevent diversion. The Presidency directed all coordinating committees to prioritize youth, women, and vulnerable farmers. This agro-input injection runs alongside ongoing distributions of solar-powered irrigation infrastructure and drought-resistant seed lines to facilitate all-season farming.
