Who We Are
AFA is more than an organization; it’s a movement led by passionate female Agripreneurs who volunteer their time, skills, and experience to make a difference
Headquartered in Abuja, Nigeria, with branches in different states ofn the federation, we serve as an aggregator, bringing together women involved in every aspect of the agricultural value chain. Through our efforts, we aim to combat challenges such as low productivity, limited access to resources, and cultural barriers that women face in Agribusiness
The Association of Female Agripreneurs (AFA) is a dynamic and inclusive organization dedicated to the empowerment of women in agriculture. Founded on the belief that when women thrive, communities prosper, we are committed to breaking down barriers and creating opportunities for women who have been marginalized in the agricultural sector.

Impact Stories
Alice Peter, a peasant farmer in Bwari Local Government Abuja
As a farmer, the joy of seeing my fields come to life each planting season is indescribable. Thanks to AFA, that joy is now amplified. Their support with seedlings has not only transformed my fields but also my life. It’s more than just planting; it’s a testament to the belief that when women are empowered, entire communities flourish. Grateful beyond words
Comfort Diana, young female farmer, Nassarawa State, Nigeria.
Planting season used to be a time of worry and uncertainty for me. But then AFA stepped into my life, showering me with not just seedlings but hope. Their support has turned barren land into a canvas of potential. AFA doesn’t just plant seeds; they cultivate dreams and empower women like me to blossom. Forever thankful for this transformative journey
