FG trains, empowers 250 smallholder farmers in Kano

The federal government has trained and empowered 250 smallholder crop, fish and poultry farmers in Kano State as a step towards addressing poverty among small holder farmers in the state.

Speaking to beneficiaries during the exercise, the Permanent Secretary Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security (FMAFS), Mr Temitope Fadeshemi, described the level of poverty in Nigeria as alarming and in need of urgent attention.

Represented by FMAFS’s zonal director, Malam Isa Isyaku Hotoro, he said the recent report that estimated that 88.4 million Nigerians were living in extreme poverty was worrisome.
