IYD 2025 with Felicia Gbuuka. This week, the IYD 2025 event in Abuja featured Felicia Gbuuka, a 34-year-old mother and farmer from Guma in Benue State, who has demonstrated exceptional diligence and tech expertise in her farming endeavors. As reported by the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), Felicia launched her farming initiatives in 2016. Her maiden rice harvest in 2017 garnered over N600,000, facilitating the payment of university tuition fees and the acquisition of land in Makurdi. Felicia's remarkable achievements have inspired a multitude of individuals, and her influence continues to motivate numerous farmers. In September 2024, Heifer International invited her to share her insights at an event in Kigali.
