Amicable Mondiale
- Nigeria
My Country Nigeria is blessed with natural resources which I see our vast land as a major gift from nature, however our youth are unemployed financially crippled.
This led to my initiative of involving youths and women into agriculture and showing them how to start and succeed not just as a farmer but growing healthy food as organic farmer and exporting same.
Using the old method of farming repels young people do to the stress and low yield. And I initiated the use of technology in Farming. This involves the processing machine, drones, cultivator and other machine that makes farming interesting and easy.
When I win this prize, I will buy more machines to assist low scale farmers that we have trained in agriculture.

Amicable Mondiale is solving the problem of Food scarcity and unemployment.
We focus on both urban and rural areas of the country. Our main focus is to train people to utilise their vast land and turn it to profit yielding venture.
The rural areas are train with practical agronomy practises (GAPS). While the people living in the urban res are trained in vertical and sack farming.
We have trained over 1000 women/500 youths and counting.
We train these youths and give them seeds to start up their own farming. Teach them on production of pesticides and fungicides with natural things found in their immediate environment.
We also help with farm set up for those in possession of vast land.
When they harvest,we form as a bridge to bring their products to the final consumers in the city and outside Nigeria
We are not just setting up farm, We train our members to go organic.
Their product are processed and packaged for longer shelf life.
My decision to go organic is as a result of seeing my father die for cancer.
I began a research to discover causes of cancer and how to prevent it. My parents were farmers so after graduating and getting a job as a banker, I only Farm for passion. But when I lost my beloved father to cancer, I was thrown into a search for possible natural prevention to this wicked disease and I discovered this can only be handled from scratch (Eating Right)
I formed my first initiative called 'Eat Right Initiative' before we began Amicable Mondiale.
So we strive to not only create employment for youths to curb crime in our community but we also help to improve the economy of our nation. When our trainees graduate and move into the field, they grow good and healthy food which preserves life and also make them financially independent.
