Building Africa’s Next Generation Forage Platform

Agrisphere is an integrated forage production and processing company operating from Nigeria, supplying high-quality alfalfa products to regional and global feed markets through disciplined execution and global standards.

We exist to address a clear gap. While Africa has the land, climate, and agricultural potential to support global feed supply chains, reliable and export-ready forage production remains underdeveloped. Agrisphere was established to close that gap by building a platform designed for consistency, scale, and long-term performance.

Who We Are

Agrisphere

Agrisphere was founded to demonstrate what disciplined, well-executed agriculture can achieve at scale in Africa.

Operating from Nigeria, we focus on cultivating and processing high-quality alfalfa products for regional livestock producers and global feed markets. Our integrated platform combines modern agronomy, market-appropriate processing, and structured supply relationships to deliver consistency and reliability across the value chain.

Our growth model is phased and intentional. Rather than pursuing rapid expansion, we prioritize building systems, infrastructure, and partnerships that support durable performance and responsible scale.

Mission

To cultivate, process, and deliver high-quality forage products that strengthen livestock productivity across Africa and global markets, using sustainable practices, modern agronomy, and disciplined, world-class operations.

Vision

To become Africa’s leading integrated forage production and processing platform; connecting Africa’s agricultural potential to regional and global feed supply chains while creating lasting economic value.

Values

Our values define what we stand for. They guide how we make decisions, execute operations, and build a platform designed for long-term performance.

Operational Discipline

We operate with clear processes, defined standards, and measurable outcomes—across cultivation, processing, logistics, and delivery.

Integrity

We act with transparency and accountability in how we farm, process, partner, and report—building trust with customers, communities, and stakeholders.

Sustainability

We prioritize long-term land productivity, responsible resource use, and decisions that support durable yields over short-term optimization.

Partnership

We believe strong outcomes are built collaboratively—working with farmers, customers, suppliers, and communities to create shared, long-term value.

Our Team

Agrisphere is built by a multidisciplinary team with experience spanning agriculture, operations, finance, policy, and global supply chains. We combine strong local execution capability with international standards, disciplined governance, and a long-term perspective on building scalable agricultural platforms. Our team works closely with agronomists, operators, logistics partners, and market participants to ensure consistent execution from field to customer. As the platform evolves, we continue to deepen our technical and operational expertise in line with our phased growth strategy.
