The Ekiti State Government entered into a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) with YSJ Farms Limited, an agro-allied company, to boost food production, create youth employment and promote agribusiness across the state.

The partnership focuses on reviving and modernizing farm settlements in Ekiti through the establishment of Renewed Hope Farm Dormitories and large-scale cultivation projects in multiple local government areas.

The Ekiti State Special Agro-Industrial Processing Zones (SAPZ) is a government-driven initiative with support from African Development Bank aimed at transforming agriculture into a catalyst for industrialization and economic growth. The zone serve as hubs for agricultural production, processing, and value addition, underpinned by modern infrastructure such as power, water, roads, and logistics facilities. They are designed to enhance agricultural productivity, attract investments, create jobs, and bridge economic disparities between rural and urban areas.
