The aim of this programme is to transform subsistence peasant agriculture into high yield commercial agriculture.<\/p>\n<p>Nyusi was speaking in the Sofala district of Nhamatanda at a meeting drawing up a balance sheet on agricultural mechanization.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe road to growth in our agricultural sector is irreversible\u201d, Nyusi told his audience. \u201cNow you must work, you must be agents of change. As a government, we shall do all we can to bring more Mozambican producers into Sustenta\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He stressed the importance of investing in agriculture which currently contributes around 26 per cent of the Mozambican gross domestic product. Nyusi added that, in the first half of this year, the Mozambican economy grew by 4.59 per cent, driven by the good performance of the agricultural sector.<\/p>\n<p>He said there had been \u201cpositive advances\u201d made by the National Agricultural Mechanization Programme, which seeks to increase production and productivity, and boost the income of small farmers.<\/p>\n<p>The programme has allowed the creation of Agricultural Service Centres throughout the country. These units, said Nyusi, are managed through public-private partnerships in six agricultural development corridors.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to facilitating access to machinery, inputs and soil preparation, sowing and irrigation services, the centres will support the adding of value throughout the agricultural production chain.<\/p>\n<p>Nyusi also promised to revise the policy on diesel for agriculture, to ensure that farmers have appropriate facilities to purchase this fuel.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Mecaniza\u00e7\u00e3o agr\u00e1ria:Presidente Nyusi entrega tractores em Nhamatanda\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LIno9v3tXYY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
