Jigawa  AFAN  Calls On Farmers To Adopt NiMET Advices  On Timely Planting

Farmers across Jigawa State have been called upon to adopt advices given by the NiMET about this year’s rainfall for better and timely cropping season.
In a statement signed and issued to newsmen in Dutse by the state’s chairman of the All Farmers Association of Nigeria (AFAN), Idris Yau Mai Unguwa Jaga, the association reminded farmers that timely planting is the best option whenever there is an expectation of early rainfall.
” The All Farmers Association of Nigeria wishes  to inform the farmers that based on an advice received from NiMET, there might be an early rainfall  this season and farmers should plant their crops early  to cope with the new dawn as advised by experts,” the statement said.
Furthermore, Idris Yau Mai Unguwa Jaga commended the Jigawa State Government under the leadership of governor Badaru Abubakar for facilitating agricultural production in the state, which has been recognized by the farmers at both dry and rainy seasons which is an excellent landmark achievement.
He assured the members of the association that AFAN would continue to give more enlightenment whenever there is an existing statement from all national agricultural researchers that are purely related to agribusiness in order to equip them with better knowledge of profitable production.
