Food security: Ondo begins registration of farmers
The Ondo state government has begun taking a census of farmers across the state to usher in a new era of structured, data-driven agricultural planning.
It said the purpose of what it termed an open-ended farmer census was to reshape the future of agriculture in the state.
The Ondo government said it would establish a tractor unit in each senatorial district to assist farmers during the planting season.
Speaking at a press briefing in Akure, senior special assistant to Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa on Agric and Agric-Business, Mr. Wemimo Akinsola, explained that the registration was not just a formality, but for the government to have the database of the farmers in the State.
