Waqf-based land development involves utilizing endowed land assets for productive agricultural use while preserving their perpetual charitable purpose. It blends social finance with commercial agribusiness to generate sustainable income and community impact.
Large volumes of Waqf land remain underutilized or poorly managed across many regions. At the same time, agribusiness sectors face land access constraints, capital shortages, and fragmented production systems.
