WAAFP was founded in September 2021 by I Mr. Maker in Kuajok. After Spending some time traveling and studying abroad, I came back to my home state where I embarked on a sightseeing tour of many parts of the state focusing primarily on the agricultural sector, there have been several improvements over the few years since I left, however, there is still a lot more room for improvement, I found out that many farmers are still using backbreaking medieval equipment such as hoes for tilling the land, ox plows are also still being used widely, they are better than hand digging tools but often prove unreliable. There has also been a decline in crop yields due to mismanagement of farmland that leads to decreased soil fertility, in some parts of the state, farmers are harvesting less and less quantity of crops every year causing some fields to be abandoned altogether.   

There is still a lot of storage issues, crops that are harvested are sometimes destroyed by pests and diseases in the granaries, rodents, weevils and many other pests destroy a lot of improperly stored crops. And sometimes during heavy rains and seasonal flooding, the granaries become dump, this wet season allows fungus to invade the granaries and destroy food crops. I Mr. Makeer saw that there needs to be better storage methods to reduce food wastage, if enough investment is done to upgrade the traditional storage methods to the modern standards where silos are huge air tight containers made of either Concrete or steel, therefore no bad weather conditions on the outside can destroy the crops nor will any storage pests manage to reach the crops due to excellent protection.

There is also a huge demand for food crops in the big cities such as Juba, Wau and Malakal. Fresh Vegetables are especially rare commodities at the food stalls in these areas. A lot of fresh Fruits and vegetables consumed in the country are imported from East African countries like Uganda and Tanzania, because of the long distance they are being transported across and constant delays along the journey, they sometimes arrive spoilt. Receiving a truck full of rotten Onions or Tomatoes has become a very common story in many places of South Sudan these days, and South Sudanese are getting used to it. Perishable goods are best grown close to the Markets so that they can always reach the consumers while still fresh. Right now, there are very few farmers in Warrap state that are involved in the growing of fruits and vegetables, the supply is very low while the demand is extremely high, this leads to simple vegetables being sold at predatory market prices. I Mr. Makeer therefore Saw a market gap that needed to be filled. To improve productivity where it is needed.

Ignorance also plays a role in the current unproductive nature of the state, a lot of farmers are not aware of food crops that are grown and consumed in many other parts of the world especially in big cities. Creating awareness among the Farming community will go a long way to diversifying their economic prospects.
