Farmers in the state of Osun have accused the government of buying no single tractor for the mechanization development of agriculture in the last twelve years, saying this has perpetually left them with crude ways of practicing uncompetitive farming for food security.
A source who bitterly complained to Food Farm News said no
government in the last twelve years of Osun state administration has given
agriculture a mechanized priority by buying just a single tractor to assist
farmers in the state for land preparation to enhancing higher food production.
He lamented that the state has not properly harnessed its
potential in agriculture to create job and wealth to her citizens, saying that
agriculture that supposed to be the state’s priority has been taken secondary
without new tractors in the last 12 years.
