The Esit Eket Council boss has flagged-off this year planting season with the distribution of improved cassava stems and other agro-inputs to members of cassava grower association and other farmers.
In his remarks at the occasion, Hon. Ibanga Etang noted, with the improved seedlings, fertilizer and cassava stems, we should produce enough food for consumption and sell to others.
He recalled the provision of fertilizer, improved cassava stems and other inputs is a deliberate policy of his administration to ensure the production of enough food for consumption by farmers within the locality.
Hon. Etang appreciated the government for providing fertilizers at subsidized rate for onward distribution to formers.
