National President of the All Farmers Association of Nigeria (AFAN), Arc Kabir Ibrahim, who shared his insights in an exclusive interview with LEADERSHIP, expressed concerns on the implications of the policy and its impact on farmers.
According to Ibrahim, farmers worried that the gains achieved through the Agricultural Promotion Policy (APP) would be eroded by increased importation.
The umbrella body of farmers said that while farmers are law-abiding and support the policy, their feelings remain mixed as they recognised the need for importation but also harbor reservations.
