In a move to revolutionize large-scale agriculture in Nigeria, “Tractor on The Go” (TOG), a subsidiary of Origin Tech Group, has upgraded its innovative tractor-hailing app. The enhanced app now includes equipment tracking and monitoring services, further empowering farmers to boost productivity.
Launched in 2019, the app was initially created to address the challenges of low tractor density and limited access to mechanization services among small-holder farmers. TOG’s mission is to provide affordable and accessible mechanization support, enhancing farm productivity and contributing to food security across Nigeria.
Head of TOG, Anthony Agbonlahor, emphasized the importance of mechanization in improving farm productivity and securing livelihoods. He noted that “Tractor on The Go” is not just a service but a movement aimed at transforming agriculture in Nigeria and beyond.
The upgraded app ensures farmers can access mechanization services promptly, increasing tractor density and paving the way for a sustainable and profitable agribusiness environment. TOG also focuses on training and mentoring young people, fostering entrepreneurship within the agricultural sector.
The vision for “Tractor on The Go” includes establishing a Mobile Tractor Centre in every state across Nigeria, ensuring reliable and continuous access to mechanization services for all farmers.
Agbonlahor urged farmers to join the initiative, highlighting that the app is designed to eliminate the challenges faced by small-holder farmers, making agriculture more productive and profitable.
