FG moves to ramp up food production The Federal Government of Nigeria is launching an initiative to distribute high-yield seedlings for dry season cropping to combat rising food prices. The initiative, initiated by the Federal Ministry of Agriculture, the African Development Bank, and Flour Mills of Nigeria, aims to revolutionize Nigeria's agricultural sector and accelerate the implementation of the National Agricultural Growth Scheme – Agro-Pocket (NAGS-AP). The initiative aims to stimulate increased productivity and yields among farmers, ensuring a significant impact on food production and agricultural growth.
