Abeokuta - Members of Ogun State Anchor Borrowers Programme (ABP) Steering Committee, House of Assembly Committee on Agriculture and Nigeria Cassava Growers Association (NCGA), commenced a joint monitoring exercise for the first batch of 3,500 beneficiaries that were linked to inputs and credits; as part of the historic double event of the flag off of the 2020 planting season and empowerment of the Cassava beneficiaries, by His Excellency, Prince Dapo Abiodun, MFR, on the 4th of May 2020, at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The exercise, which commenced today at Otete and Idagba, both in Yewa North LGA, is continuing till the month of September 2020; and would spread across all LGAs where beneficiaries have planted, are preparing land or awaiting rainfall to commence further land preparation or planting.
Ogun State Anchor Borrowers Programme (ABP), in relation to the vision of His Excellency, will continue to be exemplary and transparent. These groups of farmers that have been linked, are planting on their own farms, late in the season. The linkage will equally continue for farmers requiring land and the process is ongoing.
