Our motivation
Food security begins with the right equipment in every farmer’s hands.
TOHFAN was built on a simple conviction: Nigeria can feed itself by increasing the productivity of its farms. Our motivation is to make modern mechanisation accessible, affordable and sustainable — for every farmer, in every state.
A mechanisation gap
65% of farmers still rely on hoes and cutlasses; only 10% use tractors. Closing that gap is the fastest route to food security.
Productivity that pays
One day of mechanised ploughing replaces roughly thirty labourers — cutting cost and multiplying the land a farmer can work.
What we do
Everything a modern farm needs.
From land preparation to harvest and advisory, TOHFAN delivers the equipment and expertise that turn potential into yield.
Our impact
Mechanisation that turns into measurable prosperity.
Our 2018 impact figures show what happens when farmers get the tools they need: jobs created, returns generated for partners, and hundreds of thousands of farmers reached.

Trusted by the communities we serve.
Traditional rulers across Northern Nigeria welcomed the TOHFAN team and threw their weight behind farm mechanisation for their people.
“Over 70% of activities in our state are related to farming. TOHFAN's deployment of mechanisation is the surest way to stimulate our youth to see agriculture as a real business.”
Alhaji Usman
Fagacin Shantali
Taraba State
“Job creation like this — for booking and hiring agents in the mechanisation space — is a far better alternative for our people, and a real path away from the hardships the region has endured.”
Alhaji Umaru Bubaram Ibn Wuriwa Bauya
Emir of Potiskum
Yobe State
“If initiatives like this had kept our youth actively engaged earlier, much of the difficulty experienced across the North-East could have been averted in the first place.”
Alhaji Ahmed Mohammed Mustapha
Hakimin Yola
Adamawa State
“This gesture shows the importance TOHFAN and Propcom attach to the growth of mechanisation in our state. I am pleased to invest by hiring tractors for the season myself.”
