In a significant move aimed at alleviating the challenges faced by poultry and fish farmers in Kwara State, Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has announced a generous discount on the price of 50kg of maize.
The discount, set at an impressive 44.5%, seeks to bolster the local agricultural sector by facilitating the production and distribution of essential feeds.
Under the directive of the governor, a dedicated palliative committee has been promptly set in motion to ensure the effective distribution of discounted maize to the deserving beneficiaries.
This latest initiative underscores the Kwara State government’s unwavering commitment to supporting small businesses and local industries within the state.
With a focus on poultry and fish farming, the government is taking a proactive approach to empower these vital segments of the economy.
Poultry and fish farmers in Kwara State will benefit from a 55.5% discount rate on 50kg bags of maize.
This substantial reduction in the cost of maize will not only assist farmers in sustaining their businesses but will also lead to a reduction in the overall cost of products derived from the agricultural sub-sectors.
Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq’s visionary step to support the local farming community is expected to have a ripple effect on the state’s economy, promoting growth, sustainability, and affordability within the agricultural sector.
As the palliative committee kicks into action, farmers in Kwara State can look forward to brighter prospects and increased success in their respective ventures.
