The Kano State Government on Thursday began the distribution of N1 billion worth of fertilisers to small-holder farmers in the state.
Governor Abba Yusuf, during the ceremony at the Government House in Kano, said the distribution was in fulfilment of his campaign promise to improve livelihood through investment in agribusiness.
The governor had, during his campaign for the 2023 elections, promised to champion agricultural transformation through the provision of quality and affordable agricultural inputs.
This is contained in his 70-page blueprint presented to the people of Kano entitled “My Commitment for Kano.”
The governor said the NPK fertiliser would be distributed to 52,800 smallholder farmers across the 44 local government areas of the state.
