Farmers have abandoned their farms over insecurity in Nigeria - Bauchi agric stakeholders

This is contained in a communiqué issued at the end of a one day stakeholders consultative meeting on the 2022 agriculture budget held at the Bauchi State Agricultural Development Programme office.

The CSO’s said making farms safe and funding agricultural mechanisation will create not only more food but also jobs to engage restless youths who have turned to crime for a living. “Though the capital projects utilization in the agriculture sector in 2021 seem to have improved, it can hardly be said that these allocations largely affected the practices of smallholder farmers who were confronted with both COVID-19, herders/farmers clashes, natural disasters, late budget releases and crowd outs by political farmers and contractors who are the budget first liners.

It attributed this “to high level of bureaucracy; complexity of application processes, failure of state and LG to provide application supports to farmers, poor literacy level of most of the women and the failure of the credit managers to adopt credit models that take cognisance of the farmers’ realities and take advantage of the traditional savings cooperatives which these women already belong to”.
