<div><strong>Help us reach 3,000 farmers and 150 scientists across Nigeria, Kenya &amp; Ghana</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’re launching a 2026 pilot in Nigeria, Kenya, and Ghana to support 3,000 farmers and 150 scientists through co-learning, climate-smart agricultural training, and free health checks. Farmers across Africa face climate shocks, low yields, and limited healthcare, yet they feed millions. Your support will strengthen their knowledge, health, and resilience as we lay the foundation for AGRIIP’s mission to empower 10 million farmers across Africa.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Goal: $100,000</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why this micro-pilot matters</strong>
</div>
<div>Smallholder farmers grow most of Africa’s food, yet they face daily challenges that threaten their livelihoods and food security:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• Climate extremes
</div>
<div>• Declining soil fertility
</div>
<div>• Low crop yields and high post-harvest losses
</div>
<div>• Rising input costs
</div>
<div>• Pests and diseases
</div>
<div>• Limited agricultural extension support
</div>
<div>• Limited access to basic healthcare
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At the same time, many African scientists want to develop practical, farmer-focused solutions (e.g., improved seeds, climate-smart practices, soil innovations), but often lack research infrastructure, field access, funding, and opportunities to work directly with farmers. This pilot bridges that gap.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Farmers receive training and essential health support, while scientists gain real-world insights needed to design innovations that truly meet farmers’ needs. This two-way learning strengthens both sides and builds a foundation for scalable, locally driven solutions.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>What your support makes possible</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In 2026, JR Biotek Foundation and AGRIIP will deliver a multi-country pilot in:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>Nigeria
</li>
<li>Kenya 
</li>
<li>Ghana 
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Reaching:</strong>
</div>
<div>• 3,000 farmers
</div>
<div>• 150 scientists &amp; agricultural extension professionals
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>This program includes:</strong>
</div>
<div>1. Farmer–Scientist Co-Learning Sessions
</div>
<ul>
<li>Climate-smart agriculture
</li>
<li>Indigenous crop knowledge
</li>
<li>Soil &amp; seed management
</li>
<li>Sustainable pest and disease strategies
</li>
<li>Real problem-solving based on farmers’ experiences
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>2. Free Health Checks &amp; Essential Medicines delivered by licensed medical professionals:
</div>
<ul>
<li>Blood pressure checks
</li>
<li>Blood glucose screening
</li>
<li>Eye checks
</li>
<li>Nutrition guidance
</li>
<li>First aid
</li>
<li>Prescription of essential medicines
</li>
<li>Health cards for each farmer
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For many participants, this will be their first-ever preventive health screening.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Who is behind this?﻿</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This pilot project is one important part of AGRIIP, an Africa-wide initiative led by JR Biotek Foundation to:
</div>
<ul>
<li><strong>Empower 10 million farmers</strong>
</li>
<li><strong>Equip 10,000 scientists &amp; innovators</strong>
</li>
<li><strong>Protect 30 indigenous crops</strong>
</li>
<li><strong>Catalyse 1,000 sustainable ventures</strong>
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The program is delivered by a group of dedicated AGRIIP volunteers across Africa, the UK, the US, and Europe, ensuring that donations go directly to support farmers.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Funding Goal: $100,000</strong>
</div>
<div>How your donation will be used:
</div>
<ul>
<li><strong>$28,000</strong> — Medical teams, tests &amp; essential medicines

<li><strong>$30</strong> = supports 1 farmer
</li>
<li><strong>$150</strong> = supports 5 farmers
</li>
<li><strong>$300</strong> = supports 10 farmers
</li>
<li><strong>$750</strong> = supports 25 farmers
</li>
<li><strong>$1,500</strong> = supports 50 farmers
</li>
