Call for youth to be given land for farming.

today18 January, 2024

Background

In order to ensure food security in the country, farmers in the northern region of the country are busy ploughing their fields in anticipation of a good harvest. Local youth, Willem Amutenya, has though called on traditional authorities to allocate land to young individuals for farming purposes, saying that young people are capable of contributing to the agricultural sector if given the opportunity.

Amutenya further encouraged his fellow youth to venture into farming and agricultural activities, as it will help them and their families, and also address the issue of food security  in the country.
