Nigeria imports about 2 Million Tonnes of rice annually making it the second largest importer of rice in the world despite its comparative advantage in rice production. Current projections indicate that Nigeria will require 36 Millions Tonnes of rice annually by 2050 to meet the needs of its 300 Million people. KRC seeks to fill the demand-supply gap through the development of its Integrated Rice Production project which will harness local capacity and Nigeria’s comparative advantage in rice production.
