A forum was held in Rome commemorating the eightieth anniversary of FAO. The forum had three three key pillars—Youth, Science and Innovation, and Investment.
During his intervention the Gambian minister of agriculture, livestock and food security revealed the 161 million dollars agricultural investment plan in the national development plan, which aims to promote rice, onion and poultry production.
Foroyaa is waiting for the minister’s return to find out whether The Gambia is among the 31 countries that are to receive part of the 17.2 billion dollars set for investment. The facts are still buried in the details waiting to be desegregated to know what went on and what Gambia’s share and gain are.
