Project Overview
The Oyo State Government, through the Oyo State Agribusiness Development Agency (OYSADA), is implementing the Ijaiye Agribusiness Industrial Hub (AIH) and the Eruwa Agricultural Transformation Centre (ATC) under the Special Agro-Industrial Processing Zone (SAPZ)
Programme with financial support from the African Development Bank (AfDB). The projects are designed to transform agriculture from predominantly primary production to a competitive, market oriented and industrialized sector by promoting agro-processing, value addition, private sector investment and sustainable rural development.
The Ijaiye AIH, located at Atan in Akinyele Local Government Area, is planned as an integrated agro-industrial hub comprising agro-processing industries, logistics and warehousing facilities, technology incubation centres, renewable energy infrastructure, and other supporting services required to strengthen agricultural value chains. The Eruwa ATC, situated in Ibarapa East Local Government Area, will function as a production, aggregation, processing, storage and capacity building centre, providing smallholder farmers and agribusinesses with improved access to markets, technology and extension services. Together, both facilities represent complementary investments that integrate agricultural production, processing, storage, marketing and value addition to enhance agricultural competitiveness across Oyo State.
The projects are expected to generate significant socio-economic benefits through increased agricultural productivity, improved market access, reduced post-harvest losses, enhanced food security, employment generation, private sector participation and inclusive economic growth. The projects will also promote climate-smart agricultural practices while ensuring that environmental and social risks are effectively managed in accordance with national legislation and the African Development Bank’s Integrated Safeguards System (ISS).
