Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has visited rice plantations in communities in the Edu and Patigi local government areas to assess the impacts of seedlings, fertilisers, and other inputs they received from the state government.
AbdulRazaq, represented by the Commissioner for Agriculture and Rural Development Toyosi Thomas-Adebayo, said the tour would be followed by another ‘feedback mission’ to Kaiama and other parts of the state to inspect maize and soya beans farmlands, among others.
Last week, the governor inspected the Kwara Youths Farm in Malete in the Moro Local Government Area, where at least 1,500 hectares of land are being cultivated for soya bean production.
