Nigerian agriculture, finally with an intelligence layer.
Runners Agro combines an AI farming assistant, a national data platform and verified land access into one operating system for Nigerian agriculture — starting with a working conversation, not a pitch.
An illustrative conversation — try a real one below
Everyone downstream of a farmer works from incomplete information.
- •What to plant, and when
- •Which inputs are safe
- •Where buyers are, and at what price
- •Who is genuine
- •Where real production is happening
- •Expected yields and regional risk
- •Pest outbreaks in real time
- •Pesticide usage patterns
- •Farmer locations and food-shortage risk
One platform, three ventures — each building on the one before it.
Runnerbot 1
An AI farming assistant delivered through WhatsApp, USSD and voice — agronomy advisory, pesticide safety, weather and market prices, in local languages.

The Runners Agro Intelligence Platform structures every Runnerbot interaction into a national data layer: crop, weather, pest, credit and export intelligence.
How it works →RAMAS
Managed Agricultural Sites use RAIP's own data to turn verified land into ready-to-deploy agricultural opportunity — beginning in Ijebu-Ife.
See the land →Everything after RAMAS — Runners Rice, Runners Oils, Runners Foods and an export division — is built on these three pillars, not standing alone.
Pesticide safety is a public-health problem here — not a feature checkbox.
Nigeria imported 147,446 tonnes of pesticides in 2020 — more than any other West African country that year. Runnerbot 1’s pesticide-safety module checks a product’s EU and NAFDAC status directly, in the farmer’s own language, before it’s applied.
Land in Ijebu-Ife, secured — not a search in progress.
The founding pilot site carries the backing of His Royal Highness, the Ajalorun of Ijebu-Ife — genuine traditional and community backing, on ownership-preserving, licensing-only terms. It is RAMAS’s first Managed Agricultural Site: verified, community-supported, AI-enabled.
