Co-founder Olisaeloka Peter Okocha Jr and Chief Agronomist Gbolahan Folarin are seen looking at an aubergine plant at the PS Nutrac Farm on June 5, 2018, in Wasinmi, near Abeokuta.
Speaking yesterday in Abuja shortly after he received a Merit Award from the Agricultural Extension Society of Nigeria during their 24th annual conference, Chairman, Senate Committee on Media and Public Affairs, Senator Aliyu Sabi Abdullahi , said : ” A number of young boys today are not ready to do the kind of agriculture their parents or grandparents did, that is, using hoe and cutlass.
“Currently, it is just an administrative routine where they go to conferences and by the time the council is gone, in many instances, you don’t achieve much. But here we have expanded the council to bring in both the private sector, farmers and various interest groups so that they will contribute to policy making.”
