Grant Description

The demand for high quality table rice in Cross River State, and the nation as a whole, presents a window of opportunity that AVAMCU wants to exploit.

However, AVAMCU has been unable to seize this market opportunity due to its weak business management, financial management, accounting structures and technical production capacities. Additionally, AVAMCU lacks modern processing machineries and equipment.
