Abstract

TRANSFARM seeks to advance knowledge on the potential for socio-economically inclusive sustainable energy solutions (SES) to transform farming value-chains across sub-Saharan Africa. Using Nigeria as our case study site, we conducted a needs assessment across four local government areas in Ogun state to understand farmers upstream and downstream technology needs and identify points in farming value-chains where SES can increase farm productivity and revamp local value-chains. The research also identifies disruptive socio-economic models that can be attached to SES use across farming ecosystems to improve food security in Nigeria.
