The seedlings are hybrid and would mature between three to four years. He said they were provided free to support the farmers to improve on their livelihoods.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough palm fruit Singapore is doing well economically, therefore through this programme the economy of the country would improve as well\u2019,\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

Mr Kumi advised the beneficiaries to nurture the seedlings to enable them to derive the needed economic gains, not only for themselves but for their communities and the country as well.<\/p>\n

He directed the Municipal Directorate of Agriculture to monitor and inspect the farms periodically, assuring that the needed extension support would be offered to ensure the growth of the seedlings.<\/p>\n

Mr Patrick Dela Newman, the Sunyani Municipal Director of Agriculture, explained that the PERD would be diversified to include more economic crops to widen the nation\u2019s foreign exchange earnings.<\/p>\n

Nana Gyamfuaa, the Benkumhemaa of Atuahenekrom, expressed the hope that the PERD would be strengthened to benefit more farmers. Mr Solomon Kwaku Windaol, a beneficiary farmer at Kyeredua in the Benue Nkwanta Electoral Area, commended government for the support.<\/p>\n
