In keeping with AFC’s priority of expanding the role it plays in the national economy and its contribution to People Profit and the Planet, funding solutions for Agriculture are specifically designed to support Climate Smart Agriculture and Agri Value Chain activity. AFC’s agriculture-related funding includes funding of irrigation infrastructure development, technology, technical equipment, and machinery as well as working capital requirements where feasible.
AFC also adds value to this product by providing technical know-how on improved farm management and farming techniques in collaboration with several government agencies and other technical resources. In addition to financial empowerment, these loans are also aimed at promoting environmentally friendly agronomic practices, reducing pollution, increasing harvests and land productivity through climate-smart irrigation and high-tech field machinery use.
