The International Fertilizer Development Center (IFDC) has been awarded a four-year grant by the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the European Union to implement the Transform Soil Fertility Management in Ethiopia (TRANSFORM) Program. 

IFDC serves as the lead implementer in partnership with local and international consortium partners. The program aims to transform soil health and fertility management in Ethiopia by sustainably increasing the productivity of 100,000 smallholder food producers and improving the sustainable use of 65,000 hectares of farmland. One of the program’s four strategic intervention areas is the development of a vibrant soil input sector through the active engagement of private-sector actors. To support this objective, IFDC invites qualified and experienced consulting firms to submit technical and financial proposals to assess enterprise potential, develop investment-ready business plans, provide incubation and technical support, and facilitate market and financial linkages for small-scale soil input enterprises under the TRANSFORM Program.
