The Principle of the Stacked Bin Worm Farm

IMO MOUNTS BIRD FLU, LASSA FEVER SURVEILLANCE

The Imo State government has mounted increased surveillance across its borders, in a bid to guard against bird flu and Lassa fever disease spreading into its 27 local government areas, the Guardian reports.

The State Commissioner for Agriculture, Environment and Natural Resources, Udo Agoha, who said this at the weekend in Owerri, warned poultry and livestock dealers not to import birds into the state, so as to avert the entry of bird flu into the state.

Agoha said: “There is no case of this influenza here. We have started enlightenment programmes to tell people why and how to curb the spread of the disease into the state. That is why we are warning people not to import birds into the state presently, because by doing that, you would not know when you import the disease. So we are using this medium to call on poultry farmers not to import birds from outside the state, so that we don’t contaminate the stock we have.”

Nigeria 10 Leading Farms and their Owners

 

Before the advent of crude oil, agriculture was the mainstay of Nigeria’s economy. Then, the country’s economy thrived; food was available and affordable. People, therefore, did not go hungry, except in extreme cases occasioned by a serious factor.

With the oil boom era, the country and its people shifted attention from agriculture to oil and gas. Subsequently, graduates of Agricultural Science, Soil Science, Agricultural Extension, Agricultural Economics etc., looked for white-collar jobs in banks and other seemingly lucrative areas, including oil and gas. Little did people know that those who remained in agriculture would today be raking in millions and billions of naira, as their products now grace both local and international markets.

This gives an impeccable signal that agriculture is, perhaps, more viable than other sectors. Also, it is an indication that well planned investment in agriculture is not a futile effort. It suffices that some Nigerian farmers have successfully built some shining legacies that need to be emulated and replicated. Most of them, as observed, are politicians. In this edition, LEADERSHIP Friday brings to the fore Nigeria’s top ten biggest farmers.
