Operations
The complex is composed of eleven principal asset systems, each engineered to interact with the others to create a closed-loop agro-industrial cluster.
Centre-pivot irrigation — proven across Nigerian conditions for over two decades — is the primary irrigation technology, combined with mechanised land preparation, planting and harvesting for consistent year-round yields.
| Crop | Hectares (mature) | Annual output |
|---|---|---|
| Sugar cane (irrigated) | 15,000 | up to 1,800,000 MT |
| Maize / corn (irrigated 2×) | 8,950 | ~64,000 MT |
| Alfalfa (irrigated) | 1,200 | ~28,800 MT |
| Groundnut | 500 | ~1,750 MT |
| Soya bean | 400 | ~1,200 MT |
| Vegetables (irrigated & rainfed) | 330 | ~5,950 MT |
Engineered by Uttam Sucrotech International — an EPC house with 100+ turnkey sugar projects worldwide — the mill delivers cane preparation and milling, juice clarification, evaporation and crystallisation, a 220 MT/day white-sugar refinery, a 400 TCD jaggery line, molasses storage with ethanol-distillery integration, and bagasse-fired co-generation.
Modelled on tested commercial designs at AWAA's and JIL's existing facilities, the feedlot features covered feed alleys, mechanical feed delivery by mixer wagon, steel working corrals and a veterinary clinic. Three cycles a year deliver roughly 60,000 head — plus custom-feeding for up to 20,000 outgrower cattle.
The Complete Complex
A 2,500-head dairy with attached calf nursery and a 100-head rotary parlour, with on-site pasteurisation and processing into cheese, ice cream and butter — distributed through established national cold-chain channels.
A packing plant in Kwara State sized for 400 head of cattle and 1,000 ruminants per day, with refrigerated warehouse and cold storage, built on a proven JIL Farms design — supporting domestic FMCG offtake and future halal-certified export potential.
Processes grain output and farm residues into rations for cattle, poultry and aquaculture, co-located with grain storage and drying to cut post-harvest losses and capture seasonal pricing.
An ethanol distillery, a 15,000 L/day biodiesel plant, vegetable-oil pressing (160 MT/day maize, 15 MT/day each soya and groundnut) and 10 million m³/yr of biogas fuelling on-site power.
Vegetables and fruits washed, graded and packed for modern-retail and HORECA channels — capturing a premium and reducing the 30–40% post-harvest losses typical of smallholder produce.
A resilient architecture combining on-site biogas generation, bagasse-fired co-generation from the sugar mill, a high-voltage grid connection and diesel back-up for critical refrigeration and processing loads.
Developed in partnership with universities, delivering practical modern-mechanised curricula to Nigerian youth, technicians and outgrowers, and supporting community extension services.
Aggregates 30,000 hectares of smallholder land through structured contract farming — providing mechanisation, improved inputs, agronomy support, guaranteed indexed offtake and access to custom feeding.
