Agaju Madugba<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0Central Bank of Nigeria\u00a0(CBN) has set up a committee to enable Kaduna state access the Nigeria Incentive-based Risk Sharing System for Agricultural Lending (NIRSAL).\u00a0Kaduna state branch Controller of CBN, Mohammed Ibrahim Gusau, who dropped the hint at the weekend in Kaduna, said NIRSAL commenced formal activities in April 2012, adding that over N6 billion agro-business funding has been guaranteed by the system while over N20 billion more are already in the pipeline.<\/p>\n<p>He spoke during the Kaduna Bankers\u2019 dinner and award night, noting that NIRSAL has an engagement model for the state government compliance to stress their commitment to providing the required supporting infrastructure, policies and incentives.\u00a0According to him, \u201cI am delighted to inform you that the Kaduna state government has inaugurated the Kaduna State NIRSAL Implementation Committee on the 27thof September 2012 and the committee is already working with the NIRSAL PIO on the following Kaduna State projects, Ikara Tomato Processing Company, Kachia Ginger Processing, Silos Expansion Program.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe state government suggested the inclusion of local government councils in the scheme so that it can trickle down to small holder farmers and value chain players at the grassroots.<br \/> \u201cI therefore urge the good people of Kaduna state to support both the Kaduna state government and the Central Bank of Nigeria in their efforts aimed at improving the economic life of the people of the state.<br \/> \u201cTo refresh our memory, Nigeria Incentive-based Risk Sharing System for Agricultural Lending (NIRSAL) is a dynamic and holistic approach that tackles both the agricultural value chain and the agricultural financing value chain.<br \/> \u201cNIRSAL is a demand-driven credit facility rather than the current supply driven funding.<br \/> \u201cIt adopts a value chain approach to lending and banks are free to choose which part of the chain they would be interested in lending.<br \/> \u201cNIRSAL commenced formal activities in April 2012 and it is worth mentioning today that over N6 billion agro-business funding has been guaranteed by NIRSAL, while N20-N30 billion more is already in the pipeline.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The post CBN partners Kaduna to boost ginger, tomato processing appeared first on Peoples Daily
