From a net and leading exporter of Agriculture produce in the post-independent years, the nation has now collapsed and become dependent on imports for its sustenance for wheat, rice, sugar, milk, fruit and juice to mention just a few. The nation now depends on foreign producers.

Our Currency is weak, our independence is threatened and our national pride and integrity arecompromised, this situation therefore will definitely worsen with the coming uncertainty in the oil and gas market.

APC will embark on a massive and comprehensive re-organization and revolutionalisation of the agricultural industry. The objective is to sustain agriculture as the strategic engine and primemover of national economic development to feed the nation; to supply the raw material for industrial processing and manufacturing; and to earn stable remunerative prices in the local and international markets. In addition, APC will revamp the River Basin Authorities, which are the best vehicles for Nigeria's agricultural revival and expansion.

In recognition of the important role of agriculture in national development, our party in Government will be guided by the following:

1. The creation of functional agricultural Extension and food inspectorate divisions with a view, not only to making professional services available to farmers, but also improving nutrition and eliminating food-borne hazards.
2. Embarking on massive agricultural land preparation in all states to prepare the ground for massive crop production by restoring the NALDA
3. Encourage commercial livestock and fisheries development as well as strengthening forestation and environmental protection schemes.
4. A policy to encourage young people to go into agriculture by funding incentives and mechanization techniques. This will replace the ageing current generation of farmers who are too few to meet the nations demands. 
5. Reclaiming the desert by tree planting programmes and growing alfalfa grass, and other legumes for livestock nutrition.
6. Institution of land army scheme across the nation.
7. Restarting farm settlements and procuring appropriate machinery for agricultural productivity, locally sourced or imported.
8. Strengthening the Bank for Agricultural and Rural Development 
9. Investing in irrigation facilities for all season agro-enterprise
