Nigeria_“Strengthening capacities to resolve conflict between farmers and herders in Nigeria’s Middle Belt” (COREFHE)

Ongoing conflicts between farmers and cattle herders in Central Nigeria have left several people killed and displaced over the past twenty years. The states of Nigeria’s Middle Belt - Plateau, Nasarawa, Benue, Taraba and the southern part of Adamawa - are particularly affected. Displacement and a general sense of insecurity impact on agriculture and livestock farming. Agricultural value chains are disrupted, and the rural population’s self-sufficiency capacities are diminished.
