69 days after launch: Farmers await FGs tractors
Sixty nine days after the federal government launched 2,000 tractors and other implements for mechanised farming, they are yet to be distributed to farmers, Daily Trust reports.
This has sparked outrage among farmers’ groups who expressed concerns that this year’s wet season is slipping away.
This is just as the governors of the six North-East states have called for subsidies on farm inputs in order to avert a potential food crisis across the country.
