Payment Alerts displayed by some of the beneficiaries showed that while many enumerated Farmers were receiving N3,000 as the AFJP Fertiliser Subsidy grant, some farmers recieved up to N12,000.

The Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (FMARD) had in an update explained that the disbursement of the AFJP Fertilzer Subsidy Grant to the enumerated Farmers would be based on Farm Sizes of the benefifiting Farmers.

The Ministry noted that while N3,000 represents 1 bag of Fertilizers for Farmers holding smaller farm sizes, Farmers with larger sizes of enumerated farms would recieve multiple of bags of Fertilizer which will be equated as multiple of N3,000 per bag of Fertlizer.
