With the launch of the electronic equipment-hailing application (app) – Tractor on The Go (TOG), the persistent lack of mechanisation support that has stunted the growth of small-scale farming in Nigeria will soon come to an end.
Head of Tractor on The Go app, Anthony Agbonlahor, who made the assurance, said based on how crucial mechanisation is for improving farm productivity and securing the livelihoods of small holder farmers, the move is to break down the barriers that have historically limit farmers’ access to tractors and other essential equipment.

He said it would also help provide equipment tracking and monitoring services: ‘Tractor on The Go’ is not just a service, but a movement dedicated to transforming agriculture in Nigeria and beyond.”
Agbonlahor maintained that the initiative was to ensure every farmer can access mechanisation services promptly, which would boost productivity and maximise returns on existing landholdings.
By strategically increasing tractor density across Nigeria, he said the app would pave the way for a sustainable and profitable agribusiness environment, ultimately contributing to the nation’s agricultural development.
Beyond tracking, the TOG boss said the project was also committed to training and mentoring young people, giving them the tools and knowledge to access and manages tractors when needed—without the financial burden of ownership—thereby fostering entrepreneurship within the agricultural sector.
Agbonlahor said the app’s vision includes establishing a mobile tractor centre in every state across Nigeria, ensuring that farmers have reliable and continuous access to mechanisation services.
