GOVERNORS of the South East geopolitical zone of the country, yesterday, called on the Federal Government and other development partners including USAID, UK Aid, IFAD, FADAMA to increase allocation of agricultural facilities to farmers within the region.

AGRICULTURE, which is one of the four pillars on which Governor Willie Obiano’s administration is anchored, is getting the desired attention in most of the food production belts of the state, thanks to the support by the FADAMA III Additional Financing and the international donor agencies, including the World Bank, which introduced new irrigation method currently being enjoyed by farmers in the state.

The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has said the present administration’s agricultural revolution is not a mere propaganda but a reality, with enough evidence to back it up.

The Ogun State Government on Friday advised fish farmers to join in cluster farming and cooperate with the government in order to achieve its set objectives.

THE President of the National Association of Nigerian Traders (NANTs), Ken Ukaoha,  has said that only a few people are aware of the commitments made by their governments in the agriculture policy instruments.
