How It Works

Three layers of verification, zero room for fraud

Every farmer profile on Prodile is verified three times before it goes live. No ghost participants. No altered records. Just data that institutions can trust.

Field registration on the Prodile mobile app

Register farmers in the field, not on paper

An NYSC agent visits the farmer in person, capturing biometric identity, GPS coordinates, crop type, and land size via the offline-capable mobile app.

Algorithmic quality check reviewing farmer data

Catch bad data before it enters the database

The platform automatically flags anomalies: implausible land sizes, GPS coordinates outside farmland, and duplicate biometric records.

Independently re-verify a sample of every batch

A random 10% of all registrations are independently re-visited and re-verified by a second agent or cluster supervisor with no involvement in the original registration.

Lock every verified record so it cannot be altered

Once verified, every data point is cryptographically locked. It cannot be altered, backdated, or manipulated after submission.

Why It Matters

Nigeria's agricultural funding has a ghost farmer problem.

Billions of naira in agricultural loans and grants never reach real farmers. They go to people with connections, not people with crops. Prodile makes the difference visible.

14.5M

Smallholder farmers in Nigeria

They produce over 80% of Nigeria's food supply. Fewer than 5% of them have ever accessed formal financial support.

₦1T+

Disbursed under Anchor Borrowers' Programme

Since 2015, with no reliable mechanism to confirm that beneficiaries were real, active farmers before the money was released.

<5%

Farmers with access to formal finance

Not because they are not creditworthy. Because there was no verified data to prove they existed. Prodile changes that.

₦0

Previously spent on a verified national farmer database

Until now, no government agency, development institution, or bank had a verified record of Nigeria's farmers. We are building it.

The NYSC Model

Young Nigerians building Nigeria's agricultural future

Nigeria already deploys 250,000 graduates to rural communities every year through NYSC. Prodile turns that existing civic infrastructure into a self-renewing, nationwide data collection network.

Recruited at orientation camp

Corps members posted to agricultural communities are recruited as Prodile field agents at the start of their service year.

Trained and equipped

Each agent is trained on the offline-capable mobile app, data collection protocols, and the three-layer verification process before deployment.

Manages 20 farmer profiles

Every agent registers and continuously updates up to 20 farmer profiles in their community.

Self-renewing workforce

As each service year ends, outstanding agents join Prodile full-time or transfer profiles to incoming batches. Three NYSC batches per year ensure the pipeline never runs dry.
