The Renewed Hope Farm Input Support Programme (FISP) 2026 is one of the Federal Government’s agricultural support initiatives aimed at helping smallholder farmers reduce production costs and increase food output through access to subsidized agricultural inputs.
The programme supports the government’s broader efforts to strengthen food security, improve agricultural productivity, and support farmers with essential resources needed for successful farming seasons.

What is the Renewed Hope Farm Input Support Programme (FISP)?
The Farm Input Support Programme (FISP) is designed to provide verified farmers with access to critical farming inputs that can improve crop yields and reduce the financial burden of agricultural production.
Depending on government allocations and intervention plans, beneficiaries may receive:
- NPK fertilizers
- Urea fertilizers
- Improved agricultural inputs
- Other approved farm support materials
Unlike some empowerment programmes, FISP does not currently operate through a direct public application portal where individuals can simply submit applications for approval.
Instead, beneficiaries are identified through verified agricultural databases and official farmer registration systems.
How Farmers Can Position Themselves for Future FISP Benefits
To improve your chances of benefiting from the programme, farmers are encouraged to ensure their information is captured in recognized government agricultural databases.
1. Register on the National Fertilizer Management Platform (NFMP)
The National Fertilizer Management Platform serves as one of the major databases used for fertilizer-related interventions and agricultural support programmes.
Farmers are encouraged to create and update their profiles through the official portal:
Visit to register on the National Fertilizer Management Platform (NFMP) registration portal.
Maintaining an active profile on the platform can help government agencies identify eligible farmers when support programmes are rolled out.
2. Enroll in the National Digital Farmers Registry (NDFR)
The National Digital Farmers Registry is a nationwide database developed to capture and verify farmer information across Nigeria.
The platform helps government agencies, development organizations, and agricultural partners identify genuine farmers for intervention programmes.
Visit the National Digital Farmers Registry (NDFR) registration portal and apply online.
Farmers should ensure that all information submitted is accurate and up to date.
3. Engage with Your State Agricultural Development Programme (ADP)
State Agricultural Development Programmes (ADPs) remain an important part of farmer verification and agricultural support distribution.
ADP officials and extension workers often:
- Register farmers within communities
- Verify farming activities
- Conduct field assessments
- Support beneficiary identification processes
- Facilitate distribution of agricultural inputs
Regular engagement with your state’s ADP office can help ensure your records are properly captured.
4. Join a Recognized Farmers’ Cooperative
Membership in a registered farmers’ cooperative or agricultural association can provide access to numerous opportunities beyond input support.
Benefits may include:
- Easier access to government interventions
- Improved visibility during beneficiary selectio
- Training and capacity-building programmes
- Access to grants, loans, and agricultural support services
- Collective representation and advocacy
Many agricultural interventions prioritize organized farmer groups during implementation.
5. Update Your Information at the Local Government Agriculture Office
Local government agriculture departments often coordinate farmer registration and validation exercises within their jurisdictions.
Farmers are encouraged to visit their nearest agriculture office to:
Verify existing records
Update farming information
Participate in registration exercises
Obtain information on upcoming agricultural programmes
Keeping your records current can improve your eligibility for future interventions.
Benefits Available to Selected Farmers
Depending on available funding and programme implementation plans, successful beneficiaries may receive:
- Subsidized fertilizers
- Free agricultural inputs
- Access to government-backed farming support programmes
- Agricultural productivity enhancement packages
- Other intervention benefits targeted at improving farm output
The specific support package may vary from one farming season to another.
Important Warning to Farmers
Farmers should be vigilant and avoid individuals or groups claiming they can guarantee selection into the programme in exchange for money.
The Federal Government identifies beneficiaries through official registration and verification systems.
To avoid scams:
- Use only official government platforms
- Do not pay anyone for registration
- Verify information through recognized government channels
- Report suspicious activities to relevant authorities
