About Us
One of the problems restraining increased food production in Nigeria is poor access to farm mechanisation by farmers. Tractor Owners and Hiring Facilities Association of Nigeria (TOHFAN) was established in 2003 with 9 tractors and 36 members to provide tractor hiring services to farmers on a commercial basis. Currently the association operates in 31 States across the country with 552 tractors and 1423 members.
The association plans to have members in every State in Nigeria. TOHFAN is managed by a team of executive members from the head office in Zaria, Kaduna State comprising of Chairman, Vice-Chairman, Secretary, Assistant Secretary, Treasurer and Public Relations Officer. At the State level, the association is managed by an executive committee that has similar positions as the head office. TOHFAN is registered with Corporate Affairs Commission in Abuja (CAC/IT No 49938).
