The Kwara State Governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, has flagged off the distribution of improved seeds, chemicals, and fertilisers to 10,000 farmers across the 16 local government areas of the state for this farming season.
Mr AbdulRazaq said the exercise was part of his administration’s efforts to encourage a bumper harvest and promote food security in the state and Nigeria.
He said the government had targeted 600,000 households, including small-scale farmers, in its recent distribution of farm implements and other supports.
