PJS achieved complete backward integration in the Rice Value Chain by setting up a Corporate rice farm in Nigeria in 2015.

The farm is spread over 7,500ha and is highly mechanized using the latest precision agriculture techniques in the rice farming. Our farm is designed to be fully irrigated by gravity through water drawn from our dams using a network of canals. This unique advantage allows to achieve major savings on water pumping costs and also reduce our footprint on the environment. The venture has been set up as the first of its kind Public Private Partnership with the Nigerian Government aimed to make the country self-sufficient in rice production.
