President of the Nigerian-Belgium Chamber of Commerce , Timi Austen-Peters, has said that the potential in the agriculture sector can bail the country out of the perennial foreign exchange crisis if the value chains are developed to enhance its export value.

Executive Secretary/ Chief Executive Officer, the Nigerian Investment Promotion Council , Yewande Sadiku, pointed out that Nigeria, being among the 10 top countries in the world with arable land, can feed the world. She said the country’s natural resource endowment is a huge attraction to investors who she said are increasingly finding it easier to do business in the market.

After a historical analysis of the challenges facing the sector and the emerging opportunities in the international market, Dantata insisted that the country can aspire “to depend on agriculture rather than crude for self-sufficiency and export earnings”. Quality of produce, continuity, reliability, and proper documentation, he said, are some of the factors that guarantee good export earnings from agriculture.

The bank said it has embarked on several initiatives that include streamlining and automating its processes, upgrading technology, training, and staff reward to ensure that customers enjoy the very best of services.
