In Nigeria’s poultry industry, counterfeit and adulterated agro-inputs have quietly eroded the trust, productivity, and profitability of farmers for decades. From fake vaccines and low-grade feed to misrepresented day-old chicks, these hidden threats cost African poultry producers over $4 billion USD annually—with disastrous consequences for food safety, farmer livelihoods, and national food security.

At AgDyna, we are confronting this crisis head-on through Farmsured™—our compliance and traceability technology platform that is restoring confidence and accountability across the poultry value chain.

The Problem: Hidden Threats, Visible Damage

Poultry farmers, especially smallholders, face a minefield of unreliable inputs:

  • Adulterated feed that slows growth and weakens immune systems.

  • Unverified vaccines and drugs that cause mortality spikes instead of preventing disease.

  • Counterfeit day-old chicks (DOCs) that are genetically inferior or already exposed to infections.

These issues are exacerbated by poor regulatory oversight, middleman-led supply chains, and lack of product traceability.

Farmsured’s Response: Technology Meets Trust

Farmsured™ is designed to verify, validate, and reward compliance at every step of the value chain. Here’s how:

✅ Tamper-Evident Labeling for DOCs

Through our Farmsured DOC Protection Initiative, every chick carton now carries a dual-label system:

  • A red external tag for verification in the market.

  • A green internal tag activated on-farm to initiate a 48-hour protection window, providing chick loss guarantees for verified users.

✅ Blockchain-Based Product Traceability

Inputs—feeds, drugs, supplements—are assigned batch codes that can be scanned by farmers using WhatsApp or USSD. These codes confirm product authenticity, expiry, and sourcing details instantly.

✅ Verified Supply Chains via FarmClusters

All Farmsured-affiliated clusters source inputs only from verified manufacturers and distributors, reducing exposure to bad actors in the market.

✅ Compliance Scoring and Incentives

Farms and cooperatives that consistently comply with best practices receive Farmsured Points, unlocking access to:

  • Premium markets

  • Branded product channels (e.g., EggXotic™)

  • Social benefits through Farmtrove™ (healthcare, insurance, and input financing)

Impact So Far

  • Over 150,000+ day-old chicks verified through Farmsured’s DOC protection program.

  • 10+ major poultry cooperatives have adopted Farmsured traceability and scoring systems.

  • Registered farms report a 30–40% improvement in input reliability and cost recovery.

Why It Matters

Restoring trust in agro-inputs is not just about profitability—it’s about survival, sustainability, and scale. As Africa’s demand for affordable protein soars, poultry will remain a key source—but only if farmers are protected from fraud and failure.

Farmsured is more than a technology. It is a movement for integrity, resilience, and transformation in African poultry production.
