Niger towards food self-sufficiency, a vision championed by General Abdourahamane Tiani

Under the leadership of General Abdourahamane Tiani, Niger is advancing with determination toward food independence. This ambition, clearly outlined in his work “My Vision for a Truly Independent and Prosperous Niger,” is now taking shape through concrete actions on the ground.
The government, led by President Tiani, is focusing on large-scale irrigation, the enhancement of agricultural land, the modernization of production tools, and direct support for producers.
This policy reflects a strong commitment to breaking with external dependency and ensuring every Nigerien has access to sufficient and healthy food.

Feeding the population with the country’s own resources has become a symbol of national sovereignty and dignity.
General Tiani has placed this vision at the heart of his governance, calling for national unity around this forward-looking project.
In a regional context marked by economic and climatic challenges, this strategic direction strengthens Niger’s resilience. It demonstrates engaged leadership, one that makes the land and the labor of the Nigerien people the pillars of sustainable and autonomous development.
